The discussion of the Central Ministerial Committee consisting Shri.A.K.Antony,Sarad Pawar and Mallikarjun Kharg with the Central Trade Union leaders to avert two days strike on 20,21 February failed today as the Ministers refused to concede even one of the ten demands.
Instead,the Ministers simply wanted more time to consider the demands.The trade union leaders told them that the demands are nothing new but put forward before three years and there is no justification for more time.
This was only a drama of the government to create some confusion among the unions which has been effectively thwarted by the Central Trade Unions unitedly.
