ALL INDIA WOMEN'S TRADE UNION CAMP :: HARIDWAR :: 29th & 30th OCTOBER 2018

CONFEDERATION OF CENTRAL GOVT. EMPLOYEES & WORKERS 
U.P. State Committee invites you all
ALL INDIA WOMEN'S TRADE UNION CAMP

at Nishkam Sewa Trust, Bhopalwala, Rishikesh, Haridwar

from 29th to 30th Oct., 2018

Dear Comrade,

            The C.O.C. U.P. State has been given the privilege to host the All India Women’s Trade Union Camp by the National Secretariat of CCGE&W at the pious place of Haridwar to create hundred percent awareness in Working Women towards trade union movements/struggle to build leadership with remarkable feature of the current phase of the labour movement in India, that is the increasing participation of women in trade unions. Female membership of trade unions has risen drastically in the past two decades. Particularly striking is the fact that the tripling of women members took place at a time when male membership actually fell. Surprisingly, such a substantive trend of increasing proportions of women in trade unions has largely-gone unnoticed by commentators even though activists have been commenting on the increasing visibility of women in mass mobilizations, whether of agricultural workers, public sector, Govt. Employees sector or any other section in which women have a sizable presence in the workforce.

            Women constitute half of our population and if they do not come out and work, then our country will never grow at the pace we all envision it to grow.

            In every generation, women have faced some unique, prejudicial challenge. In modern times, as more and more educated young women enter the office space, their chances of facing prejudice, discrimination and predatory behaviour from men - at different occupational levels - have increased. And thus there exists a need for women to speak out for their rights and to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with each other. Because if you don’t, who will?

            Let’s all recognize the strength women bring to our organisation and empower them even more. If you are ready to raise your voice for your rights, you will find us supporting you at every step of this journey. So we meet at Haridwar in large number to make it grand success.

importance of haridwar

            The pious place Haridwar is situated around 200 Km. from Delhi well connected by Road & Rail network from all parts of India. Propitiously located at the point where Ganga emerges from the Himalaya, Haridwar (literally, ‘Gateway to God’) is Uttarakhand’s holiest Hindu city, and pilgrims arrive here in droves to bathe in the fast-flowing holy river.

            It is believed by devotees that Haridwar along with Ujjain, Nashik and Prayag (Allahabad) is one of the four sites where drops of Amrit - the elixir of immortality - accidentally spilled over from the pitcher while being carried by the celestial bird Garuda. This is manifested in the Kumbh Mela, which is celebrated every 12 years in Haridwar. During the Mela, millions of pilgrims, devotees, and tourists congregate in Haridwar to perform ritualistic bathing on the banks of the holy river Ganga to wash away their sins and attain Moksha. Brahma Kund, the spot where the Amrit fell, is located at Har ki Pauri (“footsteps of the Lord”) and is considered to be one of the most sacred ghat of Haridwar.

            The sheer number of people gathering around Har-ki-Pauri give Haridwar a chaotic but reverent feel. Every evening the river comes alive with flickering flames as floating offerings are released onto the Ganges. One must not miss out on the night boat rides over the gently heaving waters of Ganga. As the Ghats all around the river swell up with music, mantras and temple bells, thousands of floating lamps mirror the night sky and the stars embroidered over its ink.

            The Ghats are especially busy during the yatra (pilgrimage) season from May to October, in particular during July, when Shiva devotees, known as Kanwarias, descend upon the city.

            Haridwar represents a kaleidoscope of Indian culture and development since ancient times. In the sacred writings it has been called with many names, including Kapilsthan, Gangadwar and Mayapuri.

Temples :

            While in Haridwar, one must not miss out on visiting Mansa Devi & Chandi Devi Temples.

            To get to the crowded hilltop temple of Mansa Devi, believed by devotees as a wish-fulfilling goddess, take the cable car. The path to the cable car is lined with stalls selling packages of prasad (a food offering used in religious ceremonies) to bring to the goddess on the hill. One can also decide to walk up the hill (a steep 1.5 km) but beware of prasad-stealing monkeys.

            Many visitors and pilgrims combine this with another cable car up Neel Hill, 4km southeast of Haridwar, to Chandi Devi Temple.

DELEGATION FEES : Rs. 800/-

ACCOMMODATION AVAILABLE FOR DELEGATES :      
From 28th Oct. evening to 30th Oct. evening. Delegates/Guests/Leaders/Visitors carry their identify proof for registration of accommodation.

Comradely yours
