• Power workmen threaten stir in Chandigarh

    The Electrical Workmen Union on Wednesday set a deadline of August 17 for the authorities to meet their long-pending demands. If the authorities fail to comply, the union will stage protests from August 18.

    The decision was taken in the meeting of the union, which was chaired by its president Kishori Lal. In the first phase of the agitation, effigy burning processions will be organised and then relay hunger strikes.

    The demands include categorisation of technicians as per orders of the administration, implementation of old pension scheme in regards to the workers regularized after 2004, implementation of labour laws in respect of contractual employees, filling up of 40 vacant posts and special allowance to workers at par with Punjab.

    UT Powermen Union is also at loggerheads with the administration for non-fulfilment of their long pending demands. Anthony Hitchens Womens Jersey
