    Decision was taken to strengthen movement at zonal/circle levels on individual issues of staff, service related problems, corruption, irregularities and malpractices of the administration. A suitable time will be fixed to launch an intense and bigger organisational program at Tamluk involving zonal and circle levels as a part of such movement. Circle Union will finalise the details of such programs after discussion. The zonal meeting will be held after 3 or 4 months. A Trade Union Study Camp may be organised during the next zonal meeting.

     The discussion and interactions in the meeting were quite informative, thorough and comprehensive. Circle Unions have assessed that the divisional leaders have also enriched the circle unions with their observations on certain points. We are inspired and determined to move on to hold and continue such programs.
