Army has employed approximately 4000 individuals (in 7-8 different organisations in different states) and pays them at casual labour rates. The catch is that all these employees are employed for 25 days with a break followed by fresh employment. Many such individuals have been working in this way for over 25 years. The Army organisation does not encourage formation of any union. Most of these organisations are located in isolated regions with extreme poverty. The Laborers do not raise any demand for fear of loosing their only chance of livelihood. What is the legal view on this. I want to help these people. What should I do?
