Trade Union Workshop

Our last Central Committee meeting held in New Delhi on 4th and 5th September 2012, inter alia, decided to organize Trade Union Workshop in 3 (three) centres viz. Bangalore, Patna and Kolkata. It was also decided that the Bangalore Workshop will cover all the Southern States and Maharashtra while Patna will cover all Hindi speaking States and Kolkata to cover the rest.

The dates for Workshop in Bangalore and Patna have now been finalized in consultation with our States Units in Karnataka and Bihar and the schedule will be as follows:

Bangalore – 15th and 16th December 2012

No. of participants :– Kerala -15, Tamil Nadu – 15, Andhra Pradesh – 10, Karnataka – 15, Western Maharashtra – 5, Eastern Maharashtra -2.

Kolkata – By middle of January 2013

All State Committees are to finalise the list of participants at the earliest. While preparing the list it has to be kept in mind that our purpose for holding this workshop is to groom up potential Comrades for future leadership of the organisation. The list should exclusively contain the names of those Comrades who have another 5 to 10 years to go in service.

The workshop will commence at 10-00 A.M. every day in both the centres. Advance railway reservations for the participants are to be made at the earliest so as to reach by evening the earlier day of commencement or latest by early morning thereof.

Further details about the workshop will be intimated separately.
