Employees affiliated to various workers unions, teachers and other departments are taking part in the strike. They alleged that SC/ST quota in promotions of government jobs would disturb the basic structure of the constitution and won’t be in accordance with the right to equality.

The Samajwadi Party workers today staged a walkout from Rajya Sabha after two members of their party were asked to leave by the Chair.
