Rahul Kumar Vyas, Calcutta, says: This is again appeasement by the congress ministry of a certain labour class. The congress, when the elections are due, does not have the courage to stand up to the illegal act committed by the labours. I have always maintained that congress of present age is nothing but a bunch of mentally bankrupt people who have no courage to sit in the oposition. These people are power hungry and can go to any length to retain Delhi. God must save our beloved coutry from these metally bankrupt people. I dont know as such when will we get rid of these COngressians.

Manish , C, says: What kind of Minister he is to make such statement. Nothing gives a reason to anyone to kill another person other than self defense. Is he saying that if laborers feel that Management is against their interest then they are entitled to kill them?

Basant, India, says: This kind of indifference and statement by a minister shows how serious they are in countries development and safety. This will only emboldened the antisocial elements in our society. No explanation can justify the cruel murder of the CEO.Instead of just talking about rights of workers lets talk about their responsibilities and duties. The day workers understand and realize their responsibilties and duties there will be no discord between management and workers.

G Krishnamurthy, New Delhi, says: The Minister for Labour appears to have forgotten that he is supposed to uphold the Indian Constitution. He appears to be justifying the action of the workers in taking someone's life and minimizing a horrific act of murder. Is he a member of the same Cabinet that pontificates so eloquently on the right to life of Afzal Guru? Are there two laws here, one for workers who murder their CEO, and one for terrorists who bomb Parliament?

scepticus, India, says: It is unfortunate that a minister made such remarks about this incident. It will give a wrong signal to unions. Unions should approach labour courts to solve their grievances instead of taking law into their hands.
