Is there a connection between the Payment of Wages Act, 1936 and the Minimum Wages Act, 1948?

The Payment of Wages Act ensures that workers receive their wages on time without any illegal deductions, focusing on the proper and timely payment of earned wages.
The Minimum Wages Act, on the other hand, sets a minimum wage level to prevent workers from being exploited by low pay. Together, these Acts protect workers' financial rights by regulating different parts of wage payment, one guarantees timely payment, and the other ensures fair minimum pay.
They complement each other but have distinct purposes under Indian labor laws.
