In the wake of the murder of the father of one, Labour Minister Oscar Fernandes warned that India's magnates should take heed of the depth of workers anger in the world's largest democracy. "This should serve as a warning for the managements," said Mr Fernandes. "It is my appeal to the managements that the workers should be dealt with compassion. There are disparities in the wages of permanent employees and contract workers. The workers should not be pushed so hard that they resort to whatever that had happened in Noida."
