Trade unions of Coal India have deferred their strike plan after a court ordered the company to pay salaries as per the latest wage pact. “The strike has been deferred after a court order directing the company to pay the salaries as per the latest agreement,” Amarjeet Kaur, General Secretary of All India Trade Union Congress (AITUC), told PTI over phone.
The strike was planned by five central trade unions — Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh (BMS), All India Trade Union Congress (AITUC), Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU), Indian National Trade Union Congress (INTUC), and Hind Mazdoor Sabha (HMS) — in October to demand salary of non-executive employees according to National Coal Wage Agreement (NCWA) XI.
