Bengaluru, Oct 9 (IANS) The Congress-led government in Karnataka on Thursday approved a proposal to grant one paid monthly leave every month to women employees in all sectors.

Law and Parliamentary Affairs Minister HK Patil announced the decision while speaking to the media at Vidhana Soudha in Bengaluru after the cabinet meeting.

This decision was taken in the state cabinet meeting chaired by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah.

Minister Patil said the menstrual leave will be applicable in government offices, textile factories, multinational companies (MNCs), IT firms and private industrial areas across the state.

When asked about the policy being adopted in the four states, Minister Patil said that no study has been conducted by the government.

Perhaps just as this policy is useful and successful in other states, it has been adopted in Karnataka also.

State Labor Minister Santosh Lad said, “We have been working for the last one year to implement the rule of granting menstrual leave. Women carry many responsibilities. Along with household work, they also take care of children. During menstruation, they experience both physical and mental stress. Therefore, we formed a committee to consider granting menstrual leave. The committee had recommended six days leave annually. The government has now recommended 12 days leave per year. Have decided to give.”

“We are not sure how it has been implemented in other states, but in Karnataka we are committed to implementation. This will be applicable to all sectors – both government and private,” the Labor Minister said.

The Cabinet also agreed to earmark Rs 200 crore for fertilizer storage for the financial year 2025-26.

The state government said in-principle approval has been given for reconstruction and renovation of the bridges at an estimated cost of Rs 2,000 crore.

Administrative approval has been given to establish 11 Workers Residential Schools at an estimated cost of Rs 405.55 crore in the second phase for the educational progress of the children of workers registered under the Karnataka Building and Other Construction Workers Welfare Board.
