Union Labour and Employment Minister Shri Mallikarjun Kharge has appealed to the major central trade unions not to go on countrywide general strike tomorrow.
In his appeal the Minister said that the trade unions has decided to go on general strike when the whole attention of the country is focussed on achieving high economic growth. Shri Kharge said most of the issues relating to labour raised by the trade unions have already been addressed to a substantial extent. The Minister said,” however, i do assure all the central trade unions that i am always open to discussions on any of the issues relating to labour at anytime and resolve the same amicable through consultations”.
The Union Labour Minister said there is no denying the fact that the proposed strike will not only cause colossal economic loss to the country but also bring hardship and inconvenience to the common man. He said “in the interest of the country. I would fervently appeal to all the central trade unions to desist from going on strike on 28th February, 2012”.
