Madhya Pradesh Govt puts all industries under state's MPIR Act now

Indore, Oct 10 (KNN) The Madhya Pradesh government has put restriction on lockouts and strikes by rescinding a 2017 notification which had put 11 categories of Industrial units out of the purview of MP Industrial Resolution Act 1960 (MPIR act).

Now, all industries in MP will be governed by the state act. Earlier, these industries had to follow the central Industrial Disputes Act.

According to a media report, the MPIR Act makes lockouts and strikes at factories illegal and allows registered representative unions to participate in important decision making and settlement labour disputes, unlike the present scenario when power lies in hands of multiple groups and unions.

Due to incidents like, labour unrest often hit production at Pithampur the state’s largest industrial belt, generating a revenue of 150 crore per year and resulted in shut down half a dozen factories.
