Defence civilian employees to stay away from launch function
The Hindu
It is part of a nationwide protest against corporatisation
Defence civilian employees in the two ordnance factories in Tiruchi, as part of a nation-wide protest by the workforce of the 41 production units, will boycott the official inauguration of what they describe as the ‘non-viable seven corporations’ formed by dissolving the Ordnance Factory Board on October 15.
While the employees will keep away from the giant digital screens in all the factories, for display of the inauguration of the seven corporations by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in online mode, the family members of ordnance factories and OFB headquarters will also switch off their televisions at that time. The government’s decision of corporatisation would ruin the family of every employee, C. Srikumar, General Secretary, All India Defence Employees Union, said.
