The Himachal Pradesh State Electricity Board Ltd (HPSEBL) Employees Union has taken a strong exception to the show-cause notice issued by the state Education Department to Varinder Chouhan, state president of Joint Employees’ Federation, for raising slogans against the government.
Kuldeep Kharwara, state president of the union who is also chief coordinator of the federation, in a statement issued here on Friday said the issuance of such notice to the employees’ leader was an attempt to suppress the voice of the unions which were supposed to raise grievances of employees. This exercise was an infringement on the rights of trade unions in the state.
