    <fulldesc>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New Delhi, May 2 (KNN)&lt;/strong&gt; In order to ensure strict enforcement of the increased minimum wages, Delhi Government will deploy special teams in each district of the city.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Delhi Labour Minister Gopal Rai on Monday made the announcement at a programme organised on the occasion of Labour Day.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Addressing workers, Rai said the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government was committed to the development of the labourers and would strictly enforce the revised minimum wages.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Rai said for strict enforcement of revised minimum wages, special task force teams will be formed in each district for surveillance and redressal of complaints regarding violation of minimum wages.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;The increased minimum wages in the city was approved in March this year after which the minimum wages in Delhi will go up from Rs 9,724 to Rs 13,350 a month for unskilled labourers, from Rs 10,764 to Rs 14,698 for semi-skilled labourers and from Rs 11,830 to Rs 16,182 for skilled labourers.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;The Labour Minister said all the District Magistrates have been asked to receive all complaints regarding non-payment of new minimum wages on the priority basis and address them in a time-bound manner.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;He also asked the officials to direct labour inspectors to guarantee the payment of hiked minimum wages to the workers in their respective areas.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
