Lakshadweep

The four labour codes
Draft Code on Wages rules onlyThe Administration's own portal lists this file as the “Code on Wages (Lakshadweep) Rules, 2025”. The document is a DRAFT, its notification is dated March 2026 with the day left blank, and it invites objections for forty-five days. It is published here as what it is, not as what the listing calls it. The department's page names the four codes it is to implement, but publishes rules under only one of them, and those are a draft.F.No.08/01/2024-LE&T
