STRIKE HITS HOSIERIES IN TIRUPPUR AND TEXTILES IN COIMBATORE

Mixed response to strike in Tamil Nadu

Around three lakh workers in hosiery units in Tirupur and workers in textile mills in Coimbatore actively participated in the protest called by the central trade unions.

In Tiruchirappali, around 4,000 workers at the Golden Rock railway unit struck work.

Buses to Kerala were stopped at the state border; there were also no buses to Tamil Nadu from that state.

The strike has been called against rising prices, privatisation and violation of labour laws and for a new pension scheme.

  1. Dear Comrade,

    The Inputs given shows the Success of Our
    Strike and the cartoons illustrate the
    pathetic position of our country and the
    highhandedness of the Ruling Class. Let
    this page be a frontrunner to the AIIEA.
    After our conversation at Trissur on this
    subject, I have visited this blog earlier and
    proud to be the First Follower.

    For ICEU, Vellore Dn also I have created
    a page and will be inaugurated at an
    appropriate time

    With Greetings
