Delay in LPG cylinder supply due to labor strike

Posted on: 09/Jul/2014 11:45:18 AM
Chennaites are facing a delay in supply of cooking gas cylinders owing to labour issues at the Indian Oil Corporation’s LPG bottling plant in Ennore. People living in and around Chennai said it took 10 days for Indane distributors to supply the cylinders, in addition to the three-week gap after the booking period.
 
Following the strike by around 100 contract labourers for the past two days, the number of loads dispatched from the plant has come down by half leading to backlog in supplies. Normally 150 loads will be dispatched daily from the plant that operates two shifts.
 
IOC sources said it was taking steps to remove defective cylinders and those that were being used beyond expiry dates.
 
Company officials said talks were being held with the union and hoped that they would resume work from Wednesday.
