"Our basic salary is 10,000 rupees ($120), which should be at least 25,000 rupees ($295)," said Manish Kumar, 25, a warehouse worker who joined the New Delhi protest. "And the environment there is to work under pressure," he added.
Nitesh Das, a union leader, said the workers took to the streets because they wanted the government to take up their cause.
Amazon, in a statement issued in India, accused the workers of "intentionally misleading and continuing to promote a false narrative."
A statement from the Amazon India Workers Union said similar protests are planned in other parts of India and in other countries, including the United States, Germany, Japan, and Brazil.
