A representative body of anganwadi workers held a protest here on Thursday, demanding the reinstatement of workers who were served termination notices by the Delhi government for taking part in a strike and a hike in honorarium.
The Delhi State Anganwadi Workers and Helpers Union (DSAWHU) gathered outside the office of the city government's Women and Child Development Department at Kashmere Gate and raised slogans against the AAP dispensation.
Earlier, a delegation of anganwadi workers met Lieutenant Governor V K Saxena and submitted a memorandum to him, DSAWHU officials said.
The LG said he will look into their demands and soon intervene in the matter, they said.
