Dear Pandhi,
There is nothing like stealing the issues of IRLRO by AILRSA. All the issues are the issues of Loco Running Staff and not monopoly of any union. Any union including AIRF, NFIR, BMS or IRLRO can take these issues on their own style and succeed over it, and after that claim it as their baby.

Dear comrades,
Whenever AILRSA calls for a struggle, AIRF/NFIR misguide running staff that JCM will only solve issues. But JCM decision dated 15.02.2016 for judicial review committee on HOER was hijacked by AIRF and NFIR. AIRF created world record by demanding 4 hours super-intensive classification when AILRSA won the 6 hours intensive classification case.

Dear comrades,
We were in an indefinite fast before the DRM office demanding the atrocities of Vijayakumar to be reined; and takeaway him from the administrative control of loco running staff. We had specifically pointed out that indiscriminate issuance of charge sheets on flimsy ground, totally around 150 be withdrawn. The appeal against several in human punishment be disposed of. The anti Running Staff attitude of the Vijayakumar made our life miserable.
