It is reported in the press today that a Joint General Manager of Public Sector company, HMT, Kanwal Singh Nagi, committed suicide by leaping down from a 45 feet high water tank. It is also reported that he took the extreme step due to financial difficulties, since salary was not received for months. HMT is in loss for some years and the staff are not being paid salary.
Thousands of kisans have been committing suicide in the last few years, unable to repay debts. Now an employee in a PSU has committed suicide.
We express our deep grief and convey our condolences to the bereave family, friends and colleagues. The government should immediately act and give sufficient funds to all loss making PSUs for payment of salaries to the staff.
In. Many. Places contract workers are not paid wages regularly…in our own BSNL
It is true. The BSNL Casual and Contract Workers Federation has taken up these issues in the Parliamentary Standing Committee and with the BSNL Management. The latter has issued many orders for timely payment, but at the field level it is not implemented. Intimate me where the wages are not being paid and we will take up the issue.
Al central gov and state gov employes should support government undertakeing companies so that govt companies wil survive
There is very good co-ordination between the CG employees Unions and that of Central PSUs. It will continue. But basically each organisation has to unite its own workers and fight. Certainly, others will support.
