Coal Workers Protest Layoff Threat in Assam’s Ledo Over Dumping Yard Crisis

CITU and Bharatiya Coal Mazdoor Union protested in Ledo’s Tekok area against Coal India’s contractor ANE Mining, which verbally ordered worker layoffs from June 1. The move stems from Coal India’s alleged failure to provide dumping yards, halting operations. Union leaders urged government intervention to prevent job losses and secure the coal industry’s future.
