Organise Lunch Hour Demonstrations tomorrow, against the disinvestment /privatisation of LIC..

LIC is the most prestigious public sector company of the Country. We can say, LIC lays golden eggs, since the company is providing lakhs of crores of rupees for the government’s developmental projects. However, it is a tragedy for the whole country, that the Modi government has decided to hand over LIC to the corporates. As a first step towards the privatisation of LIC, the government has decided to sell 20% of LIC’s shares, through IPO (Initial Public Offer). This decision of the government is a very big disaster for the country and the people. 

The LIC employees are going on a one day strike tomorrow the 18.03.2021, against the disinvestment / privatisation of the LIC. The Chennai CEC meeting of BSNLEU has decided to organise solidarity demonstrations on 18.03.2021, in support of the strike of LIC employees. In accordance with this decision, the CHQ calls on the circle and district unions to organise lunch hour demonstrations tomorrow. Efforts may be taken to mobilise maximum number of employees in these demonstrations.
