Our Story

Nepal, an ancient and sacred land steeped in wisdom and tradition, has long been guided by the teachings of sages and monks who imparted not only material knowledge but also profound moral and ethical principles. Throughout history, structured frameworks have governed the delicate balance between the presiding class and laborers, establishing regulations and ethical norms to foster harmony and progress.

"Nationalise the Labour, Labourise the Industries, Industrialise the Nation"

In contemporary Nepal, our constitution, aligned with trade union laws, enshrines provisions for the protection and holistic development of workers' rights. Workers form the backbone of nation-building; no country can advance without their unwavering dedication and contributions. Yet, despite the proliferation of labor organizations, many remain entangled in political affiliations, often manipulated for partisan gains. This exploitation has stymied the success of trade union movements, reducing workers to mere vote banks and perpetuating their deprivation of essential rights and benefits.

Rastriya Shramik Mahasangh Nepal members united in solidarity

Amid this challenging landscape, originally founded as Rastriya Krishi Shramik Sangh Nepal on Chaitra 11, 2068, evolved on Baishak 11, 2080 into Rastriya Shramik Mahasangh Nepal, as an independent beacon of hope dedicated to safeguarding Nepal's sovereign soil, its rich cultural diversity, mesmerizing heritage, and national identity while elevating the living standards of the working class for comprehensive national development. We stand as an independent force, safeguarding Nepal's sovereignty, cultural heritage, and national identity while elevating workers' living standards for national progress.

Committed to industrializing the nation, creating labor-oriented industries, and nationalizing the workforce, our principles prioritize national interest, industrial development, and labor rights. Operated by workers for workers, we remain free from government, business, political, foreign, or personal influences, embodying true autonomy in labor advocacy.
