The nationwide general strike, to be held tomorrow, is likely to affect various sectors as workers from several industries are expected to participate across the country. The All Manipur Bank Employees’ Association (AMBEA) will also take part in the strike.
The general strike is in protest against the labour codes on Wages, Industrial Relations, Social Security, and Occupational Safety of workers. Sectors including banking, insurance, postal, mining, construction, among others, are expected to participate in the nationwide general strike.
The forum of ten unions, in a statement, has called for making “the nationwide general strike a grand success” and said preparations have been taken up in earnest by unions in all sectors of the formal and informal/unorganised economy.
