Is Right to Strike Sacrosanct and not Subject to Judicial Interpretation

Abstract

General strike ‘no doubt’ disturbs normal functions of the administration and causes suffering to the common people, but instead of giving strictures to the Government concerned, which creates conditions compelling the employees to go for strike, to take away the hard owned fundamental rights of the employees itself is a gross injustice. The recent Supreme Court's judgment is having serious implications on the entire trade union movement in India. It is in this context that this paper attempts to study in brief the aspects of direct actions and labour legislation. It also analyses the position of trade unions and their responsibilities to assert their right to strike in the wake of the peremptory actions of the Tamil Nadu Government and the recent Supreme Court verdict denying the basic right of workers.
