The Nepal Constitution has guaranteed the right of every worker to access commensurate remuneration, facilities and contribution-based social security by assuring all the citizens with right to employment, the President noted.
He expressed his belief that the laborer group would also be benefitted when the constitutional provisions are being materialized in practice to build democratic and socialism-oriented economies in the country.
He said it was inevitable to build a self-reliant and independent economy by increasing domestic production through the development of entrepreneurship in the country.
The President wished may the day inspire all to take initiative towards assuring laborers' rights including labor respect, self-employment, proper remuneration and social security.
