Port workers demand written assurance
JANUARY 22: The five-day nation-wide port and dock workers' strike remained unresolved even after two days of talks, with the five federations demanding that the Government give it in writing that it was accepting their two main demands-five year revision of pay and HRA arrears. The strike by over 100,000 workers is causing a loss of Rs 800 crore per day because of the non-movement of 600,000 tonnes of cargo.Copyright © 2000 Indian Express Newspapers (Bombay) Ltd.
