Many of them survive on a monthly remuneration of around Rs 9,000, while household, medical, education and utility expenses continue to rise,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Parray warned against attempts to divide employees and daily wagers, asserting that unity and collective action would remain central to their struggle. \u201cWe will remain united.
