Reading: My father started working as a watchman at a school in 1988, earning a meagre â‚¹500 a month. From 1992 to 2011, he wasn’t paid a salary, and the school didn’t even provide basic facilities like a washroom or a water tap. Now, after 20 years, another person has taken over the school’s management, and they’re trying to push us out. What can we do now?

Your father has a strong claim for unpaid wages and unfair working conditions. You can approach the labor court to seek compensation for the past years. Additionally, you can also file a complaint with the local labor department and request the new management to provide basic facilities.
