The Uttarakhand High Court today gave various directions to curb the tendency among state government employees to go on strikes.
Taking cognizance of a letter highlighting the tendency among employees of the State of Uttarakhand to resort to strikes without any genuine cause, the court asked the government to take stern action against employees going illegally on strike and inconveniencing people.
The division bench of Acting Chief Justice Rajiv Sharma and Justice Manoj Tiwari held that "strike causes inconvenience to the general public at large. The indiscriminate strikes impede the growth of the state. Thousands and thousands of persons are put to inconvenience during the period of strikes."
