Organise demonstrations on 27.08.2019 in support of the striking Defence employees.

As has already been informed through our website yesterday, the employees of the 41 Defence Production Units (ordnance factories) are on a massive 30 day strike from 20th August, 2019. They are not on strike for any economic demand. Rather, they are opposing the decision of the Narendra Modi government to corporatise all the 41 ordnance factories. Everyone knows that corporatisation is the major step towards privatisation of the ordnance factories. BSNLEU heartily congratulates the brave comrades of the ordnance factories. The Central Trade Unions have called upon the working class of the nation to extend their support to the strike of the Defence employees, by way of organising demonstrations on 27.08.2019. CHQ calls upon circle and district unions to effectively organise demonstrations on 27.08.2019, supporting the strike of the Defence employees.
