Ranchi: Two days after workers at The Heavy Engineering Corporation Ltd.
(HEC) here called their 40-day strike, the Public Sector Unit (PSU) took action against three permanent workers and three contract workers because they reportedly took the leading role in agitation.
This step has not dropped well with workers and various trade unions.
UNI President Bangia Mazdoor Citu-Affiliates Bhawan Singh said, “This is not a healthy sign.
During negotiations on January 11, it was agreed that there was no disciplinary action initiated with workers or union representatives.
However, HEC seems to be back on his promise quickly.” On January 10, HEC released a re-wage of workers for August 2021.
However, Harendra Prasad’s wage Yadav and Mahendra Kumar, the two Hata Mazdoor Union leaders were affiliated with Citu and KP Sahu from the Aitac-Affiliate Hati Kamgar Union along with three other contracts.
Workers have been detained.
There is no reason given by HEC for such an arbitrary action, Singh said
