The strike that was announced on Friday is to protest what unions called the anti-labour policies of the BJP-led ruling coalition

New Delhi: Eleven trade unions plan to go on strike on 26 May, the first anniversary of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government, to protest what they called the anti-labour policies of the ruling coalition.

The strike was announced on Friday as three ministers met national trade union leaders in the capital to discuss a 10-point charter of demands, ranging from a rollback of some labour reforms and the stake divestments in state-owned firms announced by the government to an increase in the minimum wage for workers.

Labour minister Bandaru Dattatreya, petroleum minister Dharmendra Pradhan and power minister Piyush Goyal listened to the union leaders, who accused the government of making arbitrary decisions without keeping in mind the interests of workers.

“All unions will go on strike and release a white paper listing the anti-people activities of the NDA government on their anniversary day,” said DL Sachdeva, national secretary of the All India Trade Union Congress, on the sidelines of the meeting, which was still underway late in the evening.
