COUNTRYWIDE PROTESTS BY 11 TRADE UNIONS ON NOV 8



Eleven central trade unions, including the Congress-backed INTUC, will hold jail bharo, satyagraha, mass squatting etc. in all state capitals and industrial centres on November 8, followed by a call for general strike. This was decided this at a national convention held here on Wednesday.
The TUs are demanding “concrete measures” from the Government to contain price rise, link employment protection with concessions/incentives offered to entrepreneurs, strict enforcement of labour laws and stiff measures against violation, universal social security cover for the unorganised sector workers and creation of a National Social Security Fund and a halt to disinvestment in central and public sector undertakings.
