Vowing to defend the hard-won rights of the working class, labourers and workers took out rallies on Sunday in the industrial areas of the old undivided Khammam, Karimnagar, Warangal, Adilabad and elsewhere in the State, marking May Day.
Undeterred by the searing heatwave, workers owing allegiance to various trade unions took out rallies in Khammam, Kothagudem and several other towns.
Speaking at a meeting held at the CPI (M) district office in Khammam, party district secretary Nunna Nageswara Rao came down heavily on the BJP-led Central government charging it with pursuing anti-worker and pro-corporate policies, jeopardising the hard-won rights of the working class.
