Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has said that the Uralungal Labour Contract Cooperative Society (ULCCS) is a better pro-people alternative to the corporate model of business.
He was opening the centenary celebrations of the ULCCS at Government Higher Secondary School, Madappally, near Vadakara, in Kozhikode on Tuesday.
The society was set up in 1924 by social reformer Vagbhadanandan to provide jobs and ensure income to a group of labourers who were denied employment by the local elite. Hundred years down the line, it is one of the biggest cooperatives run by labourers, providing total solutions for infrastructure development and management projects.
