The Indian news magazine N.DTV reported y'day the following:
170 Hyundai workers arrested on Day 2 of strike
Over 170 agitating workers at Hyundai Motor India’s Sriperumbudur plant were arrested on Tuesday, the second day of the strike, after the management deemed the sit-in strike illegal.
The arrests come after a complete breakdown in conciliatory talks between the management and the workers mediated by the state Deputy Commissioner of Labour.
Further talks will continue on Wednesday but the arrest of the striking workers has upped the ante.
"The talks are just for namesake. The management can’t be trusted with anything. We are going to intensify our protests. Now we won’t give up at no cost. We also want them to recognise the union," said Sounderarajan, secretary at CITU.
Sources say the eviction of striking workers from the plant was aimed at a possible resumption of production by using contract workers.
There has been no output of cars from the factory since Sunday night which has led to an entire stoppage of production at the 16 captive component suppliers. Those affected include Lumax, Hwashin and Hanil Lear.
The production hit is starting to hurt Hyundai which sees a large part of its output heading overseas.
More than 4,400 cars down on its production means Hyundai may have to shift even more of its i20 production to its Turkey plant. The i20 was initially supposed to have been made only in India.
A further shift may also end up costing Hyundai and reversing the low cost advantage its Indian export base currently offers.
