Around 15 temporary load workers from the Tamil Nadu Civil Supplies Corporation (TNCSC) in Tirupattur district protested in front of the taluk operation godown in Vaniyambadi on Friday, demanding permanent employee status. The protest was part of a state-wide strike by TNCSC loadmen seeking wage revision, permanent status, and recognition of their workers' union.
According to the workers, only 15 of the 30 loadmen at the godown have been granted permanent status; the remaining 15 remain temporary.

The workers also alleged that in-charges at the godown tampered with attendance records of temporary staff, resulting in lower wages.
