Labour unrest resurfaces at Samsung plant
Workers at Samsung Electronics' Chennai facility are protesting again, with a CITU-affiliated union threatening a strike. They demand the reinstatement of 27 employees suspended in January 2025, holding a hunger strike ahead of mediation talks. The suspensions, reportedly for disciplinary reasons, come as the state government faces pressure with upcoming legislative assembly elections.
