In the past, whenever there was any union trouble for the industries operating in and around Tadipatri, the JC brothers used to step in and resolve the issue.
But now, the JC Brothers themselves are holding a cement company to ransom in Tadipatri by organizing dharnas at its premises.
‘Ultra Tech Cement’ company is facing demands of jobs for those displaced by the cement company, regularization of services of the contract employees and contract jobs for the locals.
Work has been stalled for the last nine days in the company as the TDP cadre in huge numbers is participating in the strike.
Local CPI leader, Ramesh has criticized the move by the JC brothers saying that if the company were to shut down, nearly ten thousand people would be affected.
“When there are other huge companies in the area, why are the JC Brothers targeting only Ultra Tech?,” questioned Ramesh.
Maybe they refused to pay hafta to them? Whatever be the reasons, the clout of the JC Brothers in the area continues and it is unfortunate that they have orchestrated such a situation while being in the ruling party.
