Main discussed held on the Issues of construction workers in Railways companies in Katra Banihal section. Issue of no proper pay as per wage rate approved by some companies, No PF deduction in many companies and if deducted there is no proper registration and issuance of ID is allotted to labour. After completion of project there no proper final settlement is being made as per labour law. Max recruitment is made from out of J&K and less share given to locals. 

There is also non cooperation from administration and also from local elected representative for their vested interests. Team of BJMS Reasi demands the visit of labour Commissioner and Commissioner Provident Fund to the area to know and facilitate the issues for the welfare and cause of labour class.

      There is provision corporate social responsibility (CSR) for major companies working in area to do the welfare work in the surrounding area. CSR is purely for the areas near the project under construction, but no such work has been done in any area and there is no expenditure under CSR. Companies should take responsibility under CSR for surrounding villages, it will also generate employment in concerned village. 

       There are many companies who are working whole heartily for the welfare of labour class and sincere toward to their work and did excellent work.

The scheme is not functioning properly and cannot be fruitful till the issue of the striking employees is sort out properly.
