They are against corporatisation decision by Centre
TIRUCHI Taking a "very serious note" of the Central Government's "autocratic and arbitrary" decision to convert the Ordnance Factory Board with 41 production units into seven corporations, the three main federations of defence civilian employees at its joint meeting on Sunday decided to commence indefinite strike from July 19. Representatives of All India Defence Employees' Federation, Indian Natinol Defence Workers' Federation, and Bharatiya Pratiraksha Mazdoor Sangh, expressed serious concern over what they termed as "violation" of all previous written assurances and commitment given to the federations by the Government that the ordnance factories will not be corporatised.
