Maruti says Manesar plant to be shut today

Violent clashes took place between workers and management at the plant on Wednesday

Maruti Suzuki's Manesar factory will remain closed on Thursday, a company spokesman said, following violent clashes between workers and management at the plant.

One person was killed and 90 more injured after clashes on Wednesday at the 550,000 vehicles per year factory.

The carmaker, controlled by Japan's Suzuki Motor Corp, lost over $500 million worth of production last year due to weeks of labour unrest at the same plant.
