The Andaman Sarvajanik Nirman Vibhag Mazdoor Sangh (ASNVMS), affiliated with the Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU), held its Annual General Body Meeting on 5th November 2025 at Sri Vijaya Puram. Around 200 members from different divisions of the Andaman Public Works Department (APWD) in Sri Vijaya Puram and rural South Andaman participated in the meeting.

Presiding over the session, Union President B. Chandrachoodan highlighted the organisation’s efforts and struggles over the past decade in pursuing workers’ demands. He stated that continuous agitations by APWD workers had led to the Administration introducing a separate scheme granting daily-rated employees the benefit of 1/30th of pay plus Dearness Allowance across all departments.
