Zonal organizing secretary Pawan Kumar said, “Daily wage workers in Haryana are getting Rs 9,700 as salary since 2016 and their salary should be at least Rs 24,000 as per their demand. Similarly, the DC rate is different across the state. In Panchkula it is Rs 14,000 and in Bhiwani it is Rs 18,000.
