Protest against Centre’s decision to auction four coal blocks in Telangana for commercial mining
Raising their voice in unison against the Centre’s decision to auction four coal blocks in the State for commercial mining, all the trade unions of Singareni Collieries Company Limited (SCCL) have resolved to go on a three-day strike from December 9 with the slogan ‘Save Singareni’.
Setting aside the ideological affiliations, the Singareni area trade unions affiliated to the five central trade unions – INTUC, AITUC, CITU, HMS and BMS, besides the TRS-affiliated Telangana Boggu Gani Karmika Sangham (TBGKS) have come together to spearhead a 72-hour strike from Thursday.
In an extraordinary show of unity, the unions have joined hands to make the strike a success for mounting pressure on the Centre to de-list the four coal blocks from the auction list and allow the government-owned SCCL to take up coal mining in the four blocks — Kalyan Khani Block-6, Koyagudem Block-III, Sattupalli Block-III and Shravanapalli in the State.
