Trade unions to stage ‘rail roko’ against economic policies

Special Correspondent

NEW DELHI: All major trade unions have given a call for a nationwide ‘rail roko’ on December 4 and 5 to protest against the government’s economic policies that has made life “totally miserable” for the people, more so for the working class.

All major unions — except the Indian National Trade Union Congress and the Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh — of railways, coal, banking and insurance employees extended support to the ‘rail roko’ here last week. All-India Trade Union Congress general secretary Gurudas Dasgupta said they were left with no alternative but to take the issue to the streets. The unions will organise rallies and conventions in cities and industrial towns from September to November.
