Details Regarding strike negotiation and settlement:

The NJCA met the Home Minister in a delegation. The issues in the Charter of demands were discussed with special reference to the 7th CPC related demands.

The Government had assured to refer the revision of Minimum wage and fitment formula to a High Level Committee of Ministers.
