Nagpur: The daily wage cargo workers of Air India at Nagpur have threatened a stir if two of their colleagues, whose services were discontinued last week, are not reinstated.
Anoop Borkar, leader of the cargo workers, said, "The management hired four new workers in lieu of our two, who had been working for years together. This is injustice and on October 11 we will be addressing a press conference in which we will declare our future plan of action."
He added that there are a total of 24 daily wage workers at Nagpur and claimed that all of them had been working for last 15 years. "We were part of Indian Airlines and after the merger we continued with Air India (AI). We were told that we will be made permanent employees over a decade ago and till date that has not happened. Being daily wage workers we are in constant fear of being replaced," said Borkar.
