Air India employees set to raise banner of protest again

New Delhi:  Air India employees would again raise the banner of protest by organising rallies and meetings soon, accusing the management of "overlooking their legitimate rights" and delaying payment of back wages and other dues.
Though no strike threat has been given, a joint forum of eight Air India unions representing different sections of staff of the national carrier has said they would soon start wearing black badges, take out silent marches and rallies, hold gate meetings and adopt a 'No pay, No work' policy.
The unions said the date and time of protest would be decided shortly. Air India pilots had gone on a 58-day long strike over career progression issue from May 7.
"It appears that the management is not serious about all the issues raised by us. The management intentionally, with a motive to create industrial unrest, has overlooked our legitimate rights and violating all the bilateral agreements," the Joint Action Forum of Unions, Associations, Guilds of Air India, said in a notice to all its members.
