In The Guise Of Strike Workers Cannot Resort To Strong Arm Tactics To Intimidate Management: Kerala High Court

Live Law  

Kerala High Court has observed that there cannot be any doubt that the workers have the right to resort to strike to effectively bargain with the management. However, under no circumstances can the workers resort to violence to further their cause as the same would infringe the rights of the concerned organization to carry on their business. A Single Bench of Justice Raja Vijayaraghavan V. observed, "There cannot be any doubt that the workers have the right to resort to strike or dharna to effectively bargain with the management and to ensure that unfair labour practices are avoided. However, in the guise of a strike, the union leaders as well as the striking workers cannot resort to strong arm tactics and violence to intimidate and force the management to succumb to their demands."
