Nearly 700 workers of Bajaj Motors went on strike, demanding revocation of the suspension of 15 company workers here Monday.

The workers of Bajaj Motors in Narsinghpur on the Delhi-Gurgaon Expressway suspended work protesting the company management's step.

"The workers union president of the company was suspended by the management nearly a year ago and was not taken back despite several assurances."
