During the COVID-19 Pandemic period the IT and ITES Multi National Companies like Cognizant, Wipro, Hexaware, Capgemini, Accenture, etc., illegally retrenching thousands of employees across the country. Quarterly reports of these companies show more than 25000 IT & ITES Employees lost their employment during this Pandemic period.
All the IT & ITES employees unions across the country are working to bringing justice to the employees affected due to the illegal practices of these MNCs. Out of which, Mr. Shyam Sundar, Former Office Bearer of NDLF IT Employees Wing and Mr. Vinod AJ, General Secretary of All India Forum for IT Employees – AIFITE, employed with Wipro and Cognizant respectively were illegally terminated for standing by the affected employees. We strongly condemn that!

We call upon Tech Mahindra IT employees to resist resignations forced upon them by their employer. Appraisal system and forced resignations violate Indian labour law. IT/BPO companies don’t have the right to terminate employees without due process. (Otherwise they won’t even bother with forced resignations). If any of the Tech Mahindra employees submitted resignation and are under notice period, we ask them to revoke resignation immediately.

Marina became the focus point of the historical fight by Tamil people affected by all these issues. Without the police intervention, a very large gathering of people organized itself for seven days and made the whole world notice it. The entire society of Tamilnadu rallied behind it. This is People Power.
