Imphal, August 05, 2012:
Charging that the Plant Manager, Imphal Depot, IOC with resorting to authoritarian and dictatorial approach, All Manipur Road Transport Drivers & Motor Workers' Union has demanded strict action against the Manager and warned of taking recourse to cease work strike in case of failure.
According to a statement issued by Naorem Dilip, North East Secretary of All Manipur Road Transport Drivers & Motor Workers Union and Assam Petroleum Mazdoor Union, SI Singh, the Plant Manager of Imphal Depot, IOC is taking up authoritarian and dictatorial approach towards his duty thus affecting the people of the state in general and the transport drivers and workers in particular.
Dilip alleged that SI Singh cancelled the escort duty of all transport vehicles on the ground that there is lack of parking space at ISBT, Imphal.
On two occasions, the escort teams given for transport duty were cancelled as he failed to furnish the detailed list of transport vehicles to the CRPF, he alleged.
