A joint platform of ten Central Trade Unions has given a call for a nationwide general strike on Feb. 23 and 24 during the Budget Session of the Parliament. The strike is against the ‘anti-people, anti-worker and anti-national destructive policies’ of the Modi Government with the slogan "Save the People and Save the Nation."
The Unions also decided to hold joint preparatory public meetings in coordination with Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM). INTUC, AITUC, HMS, CITU, AIUTUC, TUCC, SEWA, AICCTU, LPF and UTUC are among those who have called for strike.
