SHIV SENA PHILOSOPHY
"Our philosophy is, the workers can earn their
livelihood only if the factory runs.
Not surprisingly, managements arehappy.Chandrashekhar Malhotra, general manager
(personnel and industrial relations) at Nirlon:
"Unlike other unions, the BKS' commitment to
production and discipline gives a very comfortable
feeling."

SHIV SENA UNION
Shiv Sena supremo Bal Thackeray shared a wish
with his aides: he wanted to see the saffron flag
fluttering atop every industrial unit in Maharashtra.
Thackeray has realised his long-cherished dream
when the Sena gained control of the Government in
the state.
Boys of the Bharatiya Kamgar Sena (BKS), the
labour arm of the Sena, have perfected a new
brand of trade unionism to oblige their helmsman.

The Sena union now controls 600 units in the
organised sector and commands the support of
over 1.5 lakh workers, according to its president,
Ramakant More.
Its major rivals, the CPI-affiliated All India Trade
Union Congress (AITUC) and the CPI(M)-led
Centre for Indian Trade Unions (CITU).
The BKS writ now runs among the workers of major
companies such as Reliance Industries Ltd, Larsen
& Toubro (L&T), Telco, Godrej Soaps, Mahindra &Mahindra (M&M) and Nirlon, as well as some of the
five-star hotels in the state.

ACTIVITIESDONEBYSENA
The BKS is also reaping the benefits of a 'strike
fatigue' syndrome.
It is more amenable than other unions to
technological change and programmes for
improving quality as well as productivity. For
instance, at l&t last year, the union offered to meet
the management halfway for raising the quality
levels in the company.
The union's link with the rabble-rousing Sena isworking to its advantage in spreading its clout and
having its way.

Claims of benefits to Maharashtrians
Supporters of the Sena have claimed that the party
has benefited the Marathi Manus (Marathi man) in
Mumbai, especially in the public sector.[However,the Sena has allegedly done little to solve the
problem of unemployment facing a large proportion
of Maharashtrian youth during its tenure, in
contradiction to its ideological foundation of 'sons of
the soil.
Dharavi emancipation
The Sena claims to have played a central role in
the emancipation of 500,000 slum dwellers in the
Dharavi,area of Mumbai, the largest slum in Asia.
The state's policy of giving free houses to slum
dwellers has been mired in controversy ever since it
was introduced by the Shiv Sena-BJP government
a decade ago.

Improvements in infrastructure
The sena has been active in trying to improve
infrastructure in maharashtra, particularly in the
financial capital of mumbai. Nearly 55 flyovers in
mumbai and navi mumbai and the mumbai-pune
expressway were constructed under the shiv sena
administration.

CONCLUSION
If the Sena fulfils its election pledge to repeal the
Act, the bks could gain a foothold in the mills, most
of which are coveted for their prized land.
BKS is now aiming to move beyond Maharashtra
and set up a national body-to be christened the
Hindustan Shetkari Kamgar Sena-comprising all the
14 trade unions of the Sena.
The BKS model of trade unionism, with its stress on
ties with employers, is no longer its monopoly.
