NTC Workers in Tamil Nadu Unpaid for 8 Months: Crisis Deepens for 2,000 Families

Over 2,000 workers from seven National Textile Corporation (NTC) mills in Tamil Nadu have not received their salaries for the past eight months. The mills, located in Coimbatore and southern districts, were shut down in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite initial full salary payments until June 2023 and partial payments until February, workers have been left without income since. Trade union leaders like M. Arumugam (AITUC) and T.S. Rajamani (HMS) are leading protests, appeals, and legal actions to demand wage payments and mill reopenings. The Regional Labour Commissioner has referred the dispute to an industrial tribunal, and a case is pending in the Madras High Court. Workers are frustrated, with many forced to seek alternative employment. This video explores the plight of NTC workers, the efforts of unions, and the urgent need for government intervention.
