Employers can't understand the problems of their workers unless there is a trade union. They can't go to each of of their employees to solve their problems regarding their work. So trade union is a good medium for them to interact with their employees for the betterment of their company.

I think that trade union is good for the economic development of a firm. If there is a good trade union, the workers can interact with the head of the firm more effectively. And as a psychological point of view, if there is some body to help and support the workers will have a self confidence and ca contribute to the development of the company.

Agree with most of your views. However lets examine our Defence set up which is not having any trade union and has wonderfully functioning. The welfare is looked after better than any organisation in the world there. the satisfaction among enployees(soldiers) are also high.It is a fact that most trade unions exploit workers.

One thing I observe here is that everyone is speaking same thing but in different way.
I think trade unionism is good when it really work for the employee but now a days there are many trade unions in India who are more involved on Politics rather than the problem related to their own Employees. So if Trade Union is really doing there own work then its definitely very good for the success of Employee as well Industry but if they are not doing it then Banning the Trade Union is a good Idea.

I feel that trade unions should not be banned because they are the ones who let management to about their workers. managers will try to solve those problems, which inturn leads to efficency in the work, which overall lead to growth of the company.

Trade union is a weapon of the disrupted workers. Whenever industrial authority tortures workers to work inhumanly and deprive them from their financial support, helpless workers will be speechless audience due to social and financial impact of the management authority. Growth of economy does mean growth of garner of country with people from different sectors. If workers are deprive of their financial justice, their children will suffer from lack of nutrition, education etc. Food, cloth, home is man's primitive demand. If they deprived of it, they can not work most efficiently. Then also industrial product will be less than the previous. So growth of economy will be victim of it.
We also keep in mind that workers are not like commodities sold in the market. They also have their right to protest against injustice. Besides growth of economy does not mean only growth of the financial garner of country as well as people from the upper rank of society. It is because government of the the people, by the people, for the people. If people from different sectors can live with sufficient financial support, then manpower can be utilized better for the growth of economy.

Trdae union shoul not be banned, because this is platform where workers can represent their issues, problems & demands, but it should be in a proper way. currently what happen to maruti issue at haryana, now by a strike union every thing will be achieved, ther should be some policy to be adopded by gov limiting the activities of trade union.

Trade union is an association for protecting the socio-economic condition of the workers through collective action. Trade union is the important players in today's industrialized world. The Industrial relation atmosphere depend heavily on trade union activism.
Workers may have various issues related to the work and it is not possible for the management to reach each and every workers. So, if the Trade union is banned, then the workers won't be able to put their problems which may result in the dissatisfaction in doing work, resulting in the loss of profitability of the company.
So, instead of banning trade union, if the relation and approach should be changed. That may result in healthy relationship between the two in an effective and productive manner.

I agree with Mr DSK. The topic of the blog should have been control of trade unions rather than banning al together, as the formation of Trade union itslef in a way is to share the powers in an organisation indirectly. Such a thing is required as the workers who produces the products finally and also large in number in a factory kind of organisation should get involved in the decisioin making systems by voicing their views for which the existence of Trade Union is a must. But today what happens in Labour Intense organisations like railways for eg Multiplicity of unioins leads to fight amongst them insteaqd of contributing constrcutively to the organ and get the legitimate demands by negotiations. This sitaution is mostly due to the lavish life style of the union leaders and fiannly end up in manhandling amongst the laboureres. By this the power had gone from the Management to unioin leaders and getting mis used without possibility of fixing responsibility on unioin leaders. Whereas in case of Management mis use of powers can be fixed on the violaters. To come up, some of the unioin leaders mis inform the workers too. In some sitautions, such self motive leaders do join their hands with Management to divide the workesr to rule for their personal benefits of unioin leaders or the Authorties of the Management or both. Instead of service to workesr, it is true that the corrcuption also plays a role in unioinism (no unioin leader can be fixed on corrupt activities) to get some legitimate things done for the wrokers. With the result the purpose of unioin gets de3feated. Therfore proper controled unioin is a must in the Labour intensive production units etc.
In case of the services sector, the situation is ending up with poor customer service to the customers and fellow citizen, the purpose for which the company is in existence. The behaviour of the employye3s esp the PSU or govt employye3s for eg in Electricity, transports, public distribution systems, telephones etc with the customers stands as best examples. No citizen of this country would be have got a good interaction experience with the employyees. The organisation could not control them as a mighty unioins will come into picture if any employye is merely asked by the Management anything about his unexpected behaviour with the customer. If any such consumer reports to the Management and by chnace the Management makes a query on the employye not only it will ende up n unioin unrest but that particular customer will be furyehr harassed. Therfore in services sector a more strict control is required for which the unioin leaders should be given proper trainings by the Management to make them understand that the customer only pays for all of us to live in a better way in the country in whatever fashion they will understand. If the unioin leaders takes a satnd that no compromise on the quality and timly output etc and if any employee violates that thejn unioin will not protect then the sitaution will improve a lot. Of course this is nothing to do with voicing their views in the betterement of service provisioning functions, to mmet their demands etc.
Therefore teh unioins need be controlled and shoulkd not be banneed.

Yes I think banning of trade unions will mar the development of the country as I believe that the trade unions have selfish personal motives of their leaders and the don't work for the general members. The members are forced to work accordin their ideas as they are easily manipulted to do not know what is right and wrong. More over it is because of these trade unions that we get so many transort strikes.
