India, Oct. 31 -- Kerala Minister for Labour and General Education Sivankutty on Thursday flayed the new draft central labour policy, terming it as "extremely anti-labour," and one which takes away the rights of states. In a statement here, he alleged that the new policy, "Shram Shakti Neeti 2025" released by the Union Labour Ministry, completely negates constitutional labour rights and the concept of social justice.
