Our Red Salute to the  comrades of Neyveli Lignite Corporation, who are on strike since 3rd October against the decision of government to disinvest shares in the company. All the unions in the NLC are involved in the strike, but the government is still adamant.

The Central trade Unions have called for support and solidarity of all the unions to this justified strike of NLC employees. BSNL Employees Union along with other unions in BSNL, as per the call of the Forum of BSNL Unions/Associations had organised massive demonstrations on 9th July all over India in support of the NLC strike.

The government should come down from the present adamant stand and discuss with the Unions in NLC and  drop the proposals for disinvestment. That will be a wise decision.
