The Madras High Court on Thursday directed the police not to interfere with the peaceful strike by the workers’ union of a South Korean company at Sriperumbudur in Kancheepuram district.
If, for any reason, the strike became violent or at the instance of the management there is likelihood of disturbance to law and order, then it was for the police to restore peace and prevent any unlawful activity, the court said.
Justice M. Duraiswamy passed the interim order on a petition by the United Labour Federation. The petitioner submitted that its members were permanent workers of NVH India Auto Parts Pvt. Limited at Irungattukottai.
The union alleged that the company did not follow any legislation for the welfare of the labourers.
