‘All civic bodies adopt resolutions on the issue’
The All party Trade Unions, People’s Organisations for Protection of Visakhapatnam Steel Plant (VSP) and public sector units’ (PSUs) Joint Action Committee (JAC) have resolved to intensify the agitation against privatisation of the VSP at a roundtable meeting organised at the public library here on Monday.
The participants deplored the adamant attitude of the Centre in going ahead with its decision on strategic sale of the VSP though agitations were being held all over the State for the past 10 months against the decision. The JAC has been organising relay hunger strikes at the Gandhi statue for the past 200 days seeking reversal of the decision on privatisation of the VSP and a halt to privation of other PSUs in the country.
