Into its first anniversary, the second Pinarayi Vijayan government has been drawing flak for its failure to tame militant trade unions accused of intimidating investors and business houses and dictating terms in public sector enterprises such as Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB) and Kerala State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC).
The face-off between KSEB chairman and managing director B. Ashok and the pro-CPI(M) KSEB Officers’ Association was no closer to being resolved though the management revoked the suspension of three of its leaders — State president M.G. Suresh Kumar, general secretary B. Harikumar and executive committee member Jasmine Banu.
