Noida workers have 'long-endured exploitation', says SP leader as delegation denied meeting with protestors

Samajwadi Party leaders were stopped by police Friday while trying to meet protesting factory workers in Noida. Senior leader Mata Prasad Pandey alleged the administration failed to act on long-standing worker exploitation. He claimed workers are missing and feared to be held in bonded labour. The SP delegation, including former minister Shahid Manzoor, was stopped at the Noida-Greater Noida Expressway. Pandey criticized the police action, stating it prevented them from reaching the protesting workers. He accused the BJP government of suppressing the voices of the poor and working class. The workers are protesting against alleged exploitation and demanding better working conditions. The SP leaders demanded immediate action to address the workers' grievances and ensure their safety. They also called for an investigation into the alleged exploitation and missing workers.
