Samsung union to step up stir from Monday after talks fail in Tamil Nadu

CHENNAI: Samsung India Workers’ Union (SIWU) has announced plans to intensify its protests from Monday after the third round of the conciliatory talks between the company and SIWU on Friday morning failed to bear fruit. The talks were mediated by the labour department.

At a demonstration organised by CITU in Kancheepuram on Friday evening, the union declared that workers, along with their families, would stage a protest outside the company on Monday. In addition to the ongoing sit-in since February 5, some workers will also demonstrate outside the factory premises.
