Welcome To Warrier's COLLAGE On May Day, 2025 Friends This brief midweek edition is to recognise the significance of May Day and also to honour those torchbearers who keep the memories of sacrifices that have gone into the evolution of several rights we are enjoying. With Greetings M G Warrier A May Day 2025 https://news24online.com/trending/labour-day-2025-surprising-facts-and-hidden-history-you-probably-didnt-know/546971/ International Labour Day, also called International Worker’s Day. It’s a day to thank and honour workers for their hard work in all kinds of jobs. B Miles to go https://news.wttw.com/2025/04/29/chicago-may-day-rally-planned-trump-ramps-attacks-immigrants-sanctuary-cities#:~:text=May%201%20has%20come%20to,for%20an%20eight%2Dhour%20workday. Report from US May 1 has come to be known as International Workers’ Day and has strong ties to Chicago, where the first-ever May Day event was held in 1886 with thousands of workers protesting for an eight-hour workday. Three days later, the historic Haymarket Riot, where a bomb went off at a labor demonstration, killed at least seven police officers and four civilians and resulted in hundreds of arrests. More than 1,100 protest events are scheduled in nearly 1,000 cities across the country for May Day this year. These events come on the heels of Monday’s newly signed executive orders targeting sanctuary cities and ramping up immigration crackdowns. C Team Work* A Businessman gets stranded on a lonely highway in the US. The tyres of his car get stuck badly in a mud pool. He looks around for help and finally finds an old farmer. The businessman goes to him asking for help to get his car out of the mud. Farmer gauges the situation, and agrees to help him and says, let us take the help of warwick, an old bull at the farm. The farmer ties the bull to the car and start shouting loudly, "FRED, PULL!... JACK, PULL!... JOHN, PULL... WARWICK, PULL..." As the farmer keeps shouting these words, the bull Warwick gets the car out of the pool of mud. The Businessman is relieved but has a doubt in his mind. He thanks the farmer and asks him, "You said the bull’s name was Warwick, and he was alone, then who were Fred, Jack & John?" The Farmer answered, "See, Warwick is old and is also blind. He does not know he is pulling this car alone. The moment he hears the other names, he thinks he is in a team, and he gives his best". So is the case with all of us. The very thought that there are others in this same situation as us, gives us a great deal of comfort, hope, confidence and enthuses us to put our heart and soul into any task that we undertake. It's not without reason that the very word TEAM is said to stand for "Together, Everyone Achieves More". This too shall pass... Let's work as a team, to overcome the crisis ... *Writeup shared by Vathsala Jayaraman, Chennai

Govt accepts one rank, one pension; ex-servicemen continue agitation | Business Standard News

Govt accepts one rank, one pension; ex-servicemen continue agitation | Business Standard News My VIEW: As former Defence Minister Antony has already alleged that NDA has ‘diluted’ UPA’s OROP and NPS has been introduced without taking into confidence those who were to be the beneficiaries or victims (and these are the people who will administer OROP and the existing ‘Defined Benefit Pension Scheme in the coming years!), both schemes will get ‘reformed’ sooner than later. With a view to make transition smoother and reduce friction which will affect the morale of the work force, GOI should review NPS keeping the following factors in mind: (i)                 Those who joined defence and civil services and organisations in the public sector did not have option to bargain and decide their service conditions including remuneration package. What attracted them to the service was the job security and social ...
