Trade union members have sought Centre's intervention to end the indefinite strike in jute mills in West Bengal.

Meanwhile, yesterday's  tripartite meeting between trade union members, government and the jute industry representatives  failed to arrive at a meaningful conclusion, as internal rivalry among trade unions took precedence.
