The strike was near total in Kerala, Maharastra, Bihar, Karnataka, Assam, West Bengal, Punjab, Haryana ( barring two SSAs), J&K, AP(except Hyderabad), TN (barring two to three SSAs), Rajasthan (nearly 70%), UP(E) (barring two SSAs), UP(W)( barring two to three SSAs), Kolkatta (nearly 85%), HP( except Circle office and another SSA), Gujarat (barring four to five SSAs). In Chennai, the response was extremely poor (nearly 30%)
In MP, Indore registered nearly 100% participation, whereas valiant Comrades of SNEA (I) from Gwalior and BRAIBATT Jabalpur participated in strike, thereby upholding the pride and prestige of their beloved Organization in MP which has given them everything through continuous struggle of last three decades. We salute Comrades of Indore, Gwalior and BRAIBATT Jabalpur for observing the call of CHQ in a highly spirited, disciplined and committed manner and sincerely appeal and look forward to beloved Comrades of other SSAs of MP to join the struggle at the earliest.
CHQ has not received any feedback so far from NE, Chattisgarh and Jharkhand Circles.
Central JAC has decided to appeal all its constituents to further intensify the struggle to create strong compulsion on the government to address and resolve the issues. We wholeheartedly congratulate Comrades of all the constituents of JAC in general and SNEA (I) in particular for making the strike on the first day a great success. We appeal to activists of SNEA (I) to plug in the loopholes observed in the first day of the strike and gear up those places where weaknesses were observed. Comrades of Hyderabad and Chennai need to make extensive preparations to drastically improve their performances and participation.
In MH where strike was 100%, brave and dedicated Comrades of Pune took out a huge rally in which more than three thousand Comrades participated. Hats off to you, Comrades of Pune - Keep it up. Victory will be shortly at our door steps.
DAY 01 STRIKE 100% SUCCESSFUL: The Day one of the 3 day strike which started today was 100% successful with the full support and cooperation from all the unions and associations and their 100% involvement. All the office establishments were closed and absolutely all the office activities came to stand still. The gate meetings were organized at all most all the major locations in Pune. After the lunch hour a massive rally was organized form the Bajirao telephone exchange to Alka chowk. Almost 3000-3500 employess participated in the huge rally. The rally was also supported by many political parties, especially left parties. The rally which was about 1 km long got the attention of the public and media. The mass gathering was addressed by the prominent leaders of JAC which included Com. Vivek Wankhede, Com. Nagesh Nalawade, Com. Deshpande and many others.
We appeal to all to maintain the unity and continue the strike on day 2 also. All the executives and non executives will assemble at their respective offices gates and stay outside the offices.
