Mahanadi Coalfields unions call strike against wage cut for previous strike
Workers’ unions at Coal India NSE 0.23 % subsidiary, Mahanadi Coalfields have decided to go on a day’s strike against its management’s decision to cut eight days’ pay.
Mahanadi Coalfields’ decision to cut salaries was following a three-day strike from July 2 by workers to protest privatisation in coal mining. Almost 80% of its 22,000 workers participated in the strike following which they were served the salary deduction notice as its management found the strike illegal.
