FCI EMPLOYEES HELD A MASSIVE ALL INDIA PROTEST AGAINST NON IMPLEMENTATION OF WAGE REVISION- Dr.A SAMPATH MP ALL INDIA PRESIDENT OF FCI EMPLOYEES ASSOCIATION INAUGURATED 

     Dear Comrades,

FCI Employees Association (CITU) Congratulates and salute the entire working class of Food Corporation of India for the unprecedented and historic All India Protest on May 11 against non-Implementation of wage revision in respect of Category III & IV employees. Dr. A Sampath MP inaugurated the All India Protest at Regional Office, Trivandrum, Kerala. The FCI Employees across the country irrespective of caste, cadre & union affiliation has observed protest at their respective places. The unprecedented response to the protest reflects the anger and resentment of employees against the inordinate delay and uncertainty of wage revision. It reflects the anger at ignoring their basic demands that were being raised since last several years. The employees while addressing protest meeting also expressed serious concern about privatization of FCI operations and demanded to save FCI from privatisation. It also reflects the determination of the FCI working class to fight back against the lackadaisical attitude and nefarious design of Government missionaries at the centre to impose slavery on them by delay and denial of their legitimate demands.

The Category III & IV Employees are the pillars of Food Corporation of India which has played an important role in providing food security of the nation. The social security of employees are under serious threat. FCI Category III &IV Employees who joined in the corporation are getting meagre income if we compare other PSUs.

The FCI Employees Association (CITU) extends its gratitude to the massive support and solidarity extended to the protest by FCI employees, retired employees and their dependents. We call upon the working class of FCI to further strengthen the unity at the grass root level and be prepared for more intense struggles if Government including their missionaries like DPE, DFPD & FCI Management has not taken a decision positively at the earliest.

Employees unity Zindabad ..

Red Salute comrades..

Yours Comradely
