Now after 5 years of service, the licence of the contractor has expired to engage the contract labor or the contractor has not applied for the renewal of the licence but the workmen were still employed with the company and not given the status of regular employees. There were frequent strikes with respect to it. Now to have effective collective bargaining with the management, those two registered trade unions have amalgamated to become a strong trade union with the name of Hind Mazdoor Sangh. Hind Mazdoor Sangh were in negotiations with the management for implementation of 7th Pay Commission and to notify permanent positions for several months. Despite several round of discussions, no agreement has been reached. The industrial peace got disturbed which led to frequent strikes affecting the production and target delivery of products causing financial loss to the company. The union after giving notice to management decided to go on hunger strike for 10 days. The management of AML claims that this strike is illegal under the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, as it has not followed the prescribed procedure for calling a strike. The management has decided to deduct 10 days wages of workers who resorted to hunger strike and initiated disciplinary proceedings against them as they turned violent, they damaged the property of the company as well. In the meanwhile, due to some dispute with the officers of AML, one worker named Rakesh has been suspended who was active member of the Union. In response to the above action, Hind Mazdoor Sangh filed the case before the Labour Court against the AML. Whereas Court decided the case in favour of Management along with compensation of ₹ 2 Lakh for the loss suffered by management.
