Nationwide Strike Impacts Indian Ports of Tuticorin, Cochin and Odisha

January 08: Nationwide strikes significantly impacted multiple ports around India on Wednesday. Ports impacted included Tuticorin Port (also called V.O. Chidambaranar Port) in Tamil Nadu, Cochin Port in Kerala, and Pradip Port in Odisha.

The strike was organized to protest the government’s alleged “anti-labour policies”.

Operations at Chennai Port reportedly did not get disrupted, as workers there did not join the strike.
