May Day/ International Worker's Day

May Day is a glorious day in the history of the labourers worldwide. First day of the month of May is observed as the May Day. It is observed to show respects to the demands of the labourers. The history behind it is very sorrowful. On May 3, 1886, some workers gathered in demand of a minimum wage, safety laws and eight hours work day. Police fired in the crowd of strikers at the Mc Comick Harvest Machine, Chicago. Here at least one people was killed and some others were seriously wounded. At the beginning of Industrial revolution people had to work long hours both by day and at night. It was simply inhuman. It stopped when all labourers stood up. If the workers would not stand up and demand their rights, their future generation would fail to enjoy. The day is most important for all the labourers. We need to observe it quite carefully and properly.
