Striking Samsung workers to continue protest

Samsung India on Monday announced the signing of a memorandum of agreement with the workmen committee to make Chennai factory a better place to work in its bid to end the ongoing labour strike. However, E Muthukumar, CITU Tamil Nadu state secretary and president of the unrecognised SIWU, said the protest would continue. He dismissed media reports suggesting a resolution has been reached, calling them “far from the truth.”
