HAL workers to call off strike: Karnataka HC

Bangalore: The Karnataka High Court coordinated Tuesday laborers of the state-run Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL) Ltd to cancel their uncertain strike, which entered the ninth day.

“The high court has passed a between time request controlling the HAL Association, its office-bearers and workforce from proceeding with their progressing strike, including go-moderate, attempt to-administer or any type of unsettling or disturbing day by day exercises and its workplaces in Bangalore,” said the city-based resistance major in an announcement here.

Around 20,000 workers, including 10,000 here, have been on inconclusive strike since October 14 for correction of their wages since January 1, 2017.

“It is compulsory for the workforce to cancel the strike and resume work, bombing which (it) would add up to hatred of the court,” the announcement further said.

HAL had looked for the Karnataka High Court’s intercession for pulling back the strike through a writ appeal October 18, expressing that the worker’s organizations had no lawful right to take to the streets under the Industrial Disputes Act.

The 55-year-old aviation major has six creation buildings, Hyderabad, Koraput, Korwa and Lucknow and Nashik other than the one here and three innovative work (R&D) focuses the nation over.
