A strong and stable union in each industrial enterprise is essential for good industrial relations. The employers can easily ignore a weak union as it hardly represents the workers. The agreement with such a union will hardly be honored by a large section of workforce. Therefore, there must be strong and stable unions in every enterprise to represent the majority of workers and negotiate with the management about the terms and conditions of service. Trade unions play an important role and are helpful in effective communication between the workers and the management. They provide the advice and support to ensure that the differences of opinion do not turn into major conflicts. The central function of a trade union is to represent people at work. But they also have a wider role in protecting their interests. Most popular trade unions in India are affiliated to certain political parties. These political parties are only keen on making every grievance of the working class a political issue to attain political gains. As a result the problem only gets wide publicity and remains unsolved. Political parties with different ideologies or objectives works towards trade union objectives which is unfavorable towards the workers interest. Majority of the trade union leaders are political leaders which is against the interest of the workers and politicization of trade union is really a challenge to strong and stable trade unions in India. The present study analyses the issues and challenges of trade unions because of politicization and suggest measures to overcome these challenges for cordial industrial relation system.
