do you agree to Strike, is that necessary?

I think non violent protests are the best way to have your voice be heard Legally. If it weren't for this type of protest here in the 60's We wouldn't have the president we have now. The whites would be separated from the non whites and the U.S. would be less of a free nation! I am all for striking. It is the best way to show the higher ups what the regular people do and How it is missed when they Don't work. The best way to get big business's attention is to hit them in the pocketbook. If what they were about to do will cost them money , they Will stop. Back in the 50's Black Americans in the south stopped riding buses because of a stupid law and the law was repelled because the bus company lost too much money.

As we, all know Ajay, strikes, bandhs, and agitations of this sort are politically motivated. They do not have interest of public in their mind. Yesterday's bundh was imposed on public. They stoned buses, with people sitting in it. They stopped trains with passengers traveling in it. They did not allow taxi drivers to run their taxi though they very much wanted to. They even said the bund is preventing them from earning their living. The desire for bundh must come forth from their heart. What is the use of this sort of bundh in which some hired hooligans forced the bundh to become success and took credit for it? If India is facing the price rise it is, same opposition's doing; who today are crying hoarse against it. Didn't power cut begin during their regime. If they had to sign the nuclear deal at that time, they were ruling India would not have faced power crisis. What more they were preventing UPA government from signing the deal, and if Congress had to yield to their pressure, it would have catapulted India into a disastrous situation worse than India is facing today. Incessant power cut for past six years is one of the main reasons for price rise. All Industries are dependent on it. The present bundh has caused a loss to the tune of crores of Rupees. It would only go to aggravate the price rise. Worst course of anomaly is opposition hopes to capitalize on this because they want to return to power to cause more damage to the country.

Hi Ajay, I agree with you, strikes/bandh only creating problems among common people. It can’t produce any results. In fact the opposition who called for a bandh/strike is not expecting a good result. They just do it for getting attention from the public; they want to show that they are doing something against the price hikes of essential commodities. In Kerala state, people are already tired up with the strikes. They don’t need any reason for calling a strike. Any vehicles won’t run and it will affect badly for common people who are traveling much distance for work/study etc. They caught in the middle of road just because of the sudden strike. Politicians never think about the plight of common people. They need attention from media and public.

I say neither. If you use strike you get the attention of your bosses. Then they take you seriously (maybe). But sometimes strike does not work. Strike cost not only the company money but also the customers that relies on the services the company provides to the masses.
