HYDERABAD, Dec 25: Sindh National Labour Federation president Rana Mehmood Ali Khan has called upon the working class to unite on one platform for launching a struggle for their rights.

He was speaking as chief guest at the workers' convention of the NLF, Hyderabad zone, here on Friday.

Criticizing the government for not amending what he called the anti-labourers Industrial Relations Ordinance, 2002, he said it was necessary for the workers to launch a struggle against the ordinance.

He observed that the working class and poor people were finding it difficult to meet both ends due to the inordinate increase in prices of consumer goods and utilities.
