Workers are the backbone of the society, just as the plowman is the backbone of the world. As the number of businesses in India grew, so did the number of unions that sought to secure workers' security, such as job security, pay rises, medical care, provident funds, and incentives. In addition, a number of Marxist leaders appeared to guide the workers. As far as Tamil Nadu is concerned, Jeeva has a lot more to be proud of than the Commonwealth Party and the trade unions who have done their heartfelt service and alleviated the suffering of the workers. Thus he did not consider selfishness and the whole first cause is humanity and was deeply rooted in him to work for the welfare of the workers. In those days workers, lived in a miserable condition where they had to work as slaves to their employers, earning low wages, without even having specific working hours. Jeeva was the one who changed that and brought many changes and stages of development in the lives of the workers. He was well-acquainted with all, regardless of caste, creed or color, and had the nature to embrace all with brotherly affection. Jeeva can be found wherever workers strike. Labor leader Jeeva was called because he worked for the progress of the workers to that extent. This article decodes the Marxian ideas in the poems of Jeeva.
