AUSTERITY DRIVE OF THE GOVERNMENT

BAN ON CREATION AND FILLING UP OF POSTS  

 CONDUCT MASS DEMONSTRATION ON 25.09.2013

The Government on recognition of the serious economic crisis that engulfed the Indian economy has decided to abide by the IMF prescription of imposing austerity measures.  They have now imposed a total ban on recruitment, Creation of Posts and abolition of the posts which lie vacant for more than a year and such other anti-people measures.  We should react to this wanton attack immediately and the Secretariat has decided to call uypon all the affiliates and State Committees to organise a massive demonstration on 25^th September, 2013. At all work places and at all important centres.

            

With greetings,

Fraternally Yours,

(M. Krishnan)

Secretary General.
