I was just skipping from one news story to another when I cam across this mention of labour unrest in India. Since it seems a major story there, and one I have not seen mention of in the Western press, I thought I'd do something to get it out...
I would think it could become a major story....
Labour unrest, which turned violent at the Yanam plant of Regency Ceramics Ltd today, claimed the lives of its President and a dismissed union leader, besides leaving several injured and causing damage to property. Several employees injured in the police firing are undergoing treatment in hospitals.
A strike for the past few weeks has been plaguing the Rs 192-crore Regency Ceramics, which is among the top 10 tile manufacturers in the country. The Yanam plant is about 25 km from here but belongs to the Union Territory of Puducherry.
