Haryana Govt intervenes again to end labour standoff at Maruti
The government of Haryana has again intervened to end the Maruti standoff. The talks, led by Haryana Labour Minister Shiv Charan Lal Sharma, involved meeting senior officials to end the standoff.
NOTWITHSTANDING ITS failure to bring about truce between the recalcitrant workers and the Maruti management, Haryana government has once again intervened to ensure that the impasse ends. Haryana Labour Minister Shiv Charan Lal Sharma on Wednesday met senior government officials during his visit to Gurgaon and discussed the strategies that could defuse the situation.
The standoff between the two sides is continuing since August 29, after the management asked the workers to sign a good conduct bond. The minister, meanwhile, said that if a solution is not found soon, then the government will refer this matter to the labour court.
The establishment, meanwhile, is of the opinion that the matter should be referred to the labour court as both sides are sticking to their stands. Due to the intransigence, the labour department is now holding more of informal discussions and but no formal talks are going on. DL Sachdeva, general secretary of the All India Trade Union Congress, who has played a key role in the entire issue, said that no talks were being held with the worker unions. Maruti Suzuki also said that no talks were being held with workers but the company was holding talks with labour department to resolve the issue.
