Building a Wider
Horizon With Labour
The strike by a section of workers at Tata Motors’ Sanand plant in Gujarat continued for the 24th day on Saturday, with the protestors threatening to launch a state-wide agitation. Over two dozen trade union bodies, including the All India Trade Union Congress, Indian National Trade Union Congress, Hind Mazdoor Sabha and New Trade Union Initiative (NTUI), are backing them, the workers said. They also claimed that the government was using the police to subdue the workers rather than attempting mediation through labour department officials.
