INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS-Managements on Offensive


WORKERS in thousands marched in a 'Notice Demonstration' (ishara morcha) to the Maharashtra assembly on July 8 The demonstration had been organised by the ClTU to draw the attention of the state government to the many long drawn out strikes and lockouts (as well as closures) in the state, and particularly in the Bombay region (including the Thane-Belapur belt). If the government took no action by August 15, the leaders warned, all workers belonging to the CITU (claimed to be 300,000) would strike work.
