UP CM Yogi Adityanath Warns Against External Interference Amid Noida Labor Protests
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath addressed ongoing labor protests in Noida, emphasizing that external elements must not interfere in internal factory matters. Speaking during the rollout of Tata Motors’ one-millionth bus in Lucknow, he urged workplace unity and a positive work culture while directing officials to strictly enforce labor rights. The state government recently approved an interim 21% wage hike for workers in Gautam Buddh Nagar and Ghaziabad following meetings with labor representatives and industry heads. Adityanath ordered a comprehensive probe into manpower supply agencies amid complaints of irregularities and mandated grievance redressal mechanisms in industrial units. He stressed that only genuine workers should participate in dialogue, warning of harsh legal action against violators and public exposure of non-worker miscreants causing unrest. Highlighting Uttar Pradesh’s economic progress, the CM noted the state now accounts for 55% of India’s expressways, rising to 60% after the upcoming inauguration of the Ganga Expressway by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He linked these infrastructure developments to a broader vision of creating a skilled, industry-ready workforce leveraging the state’s large youth population.
