The Puducherry Agro Service and Industries Corporation Limited (PASIC) employees staged a sit in protest at the office of Managing Director on Thursday. “We have not received our salaries for the past 42 months. The school and college admissions will start soon and there is no money to pay even the fees. We are living without any benefits,” said Muthuraman, Secretary, AITUC PASIC Employees Progress Organisation.
He added that the government has not come up with any plan to address their grievances.
There are at least 350 permanent staff and 210 contract workers currently working in PASIC. The employees began the sit in protest on Wednesday.
“We will continue our struggle till we get our salaries,” Mr. Muthuraman said.
