March 2, 2020
Coimbatore : The power loom workers in Coimbatore and Tirupur Monday met Coimbatore District collector seeking increased wage revision pending for the last six years and hinted to go on indefinite strike if solved in quickest possible time.
Emerging out after meeting the collector, the representatives of power loom workers, majority of them doing job works, said the collector K Rajamani has ensured to look into the matter and solve it.
