Rajiv Bajaj, the managing director of Bajaj Auto, on Thursday, reacted strongly to the threat by the company's trade union of going again on strike from April 28.
Bajaj Auto Ltd (BAL) on Tuesday said workmen at its Chakan plant have "stopped coming" to work thereby affecting production following the management's refusal to allot them shares at discounted price.
Bajaj Auto unions allege that management is not using CSR funds for welfare activities.
The production at Bajaj Auto's Chakan plant near Pune remained crippled on Wednesday as the agitation by company's nearly 2,000 employees over wage revision and other demands continued for the second day.
The union had threatened to go on strike on April 28, but later deferred the proposed strike till May 15.
Bajaj Auto's plant in Chakan has been shut for three days.
The company has already shifted production to Aurangabad.
Confirming that the company could shift its production to other facilities, Bajaj Auto Managing Director Rajiv Bajaj told Business Standard: "If we take a view that this (labour issue) is going to extend over the next two months, we certainly can do that, and will do that."
