Through the esteemed columns of the National
Media and Press, we take opportunity to highlight the serious
concern of the working class of the nation over the
consequential ill effects of "Declaration of Emergency" in the
country and arrest of the Lawyers and Political Activists in the
country resulting the loss of Trade and Export of its goods and
stoppage of Foreign Visitors, thereby, causing unemployment
among the workers and continuous sky rocketing price hike of
essential commodities.
PWF therefore,
strongly urge to the Government that it should bring the country
into normalcy in the wider national interest by
-
Lifting the Emergency and restoration of the Constitution of
Pakistan immediately.
-
Release all prisoners including Lawyers and Judges and
Political Activists.
-
Respect the right of freedom of Independence of Judiciary
and Press and Association guaranteed under Constitution of
Pakistan and ILO Conventions ratified by the Government of
Pakistan and restore Channels of GEO and ARY TV immediately
and get repealed all Anti-Labour Legislation including
"Industrial Relations Ordinance, 2002."
-
Hold Fair and Independent Elections through Independent
Election Commission with consensus of all Political Parties
in the country in order to bring Amity and Reconciliation in
the nation.
-
Check Price hike of essential commodities.
The Federation has decided to observe to
hold Gate Meetings of its all affiliated Trade Unions in support
of these demands to mobilize public opinion and observe "Protest
Day on 28th November, 207 all over the country.
