Nepal Independent Workers Union
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Nepal Independent Workers Union (NIWU) was a Nepalese trade union formed in 1979 as the labour wing of Communist Party of Nepal (Marxist-Leninist).
It was created following a General Strike in Balaju Industrial District, Kathmandu and existed as a separate entity until 1989 when it helped form the General Federation of Nepalese Trade Unions. [1]
