Maruti to go ahead with expansion of Manesar facility with third plant coming next year

I had already mentioned in my comments on the article in Car Trade , "Maruti gives the go ahead for its Gujarat plant" that no company worth its salt can stay away from Gujarat. There is lot of meaning to that comment even without taking into account the recent unforgivable violence by workmen in Maruti's Manesar plant. Sir, Gujarat is almost similar to Japan when it comes to dedication to the workplace and the interest of the employer is concerned. Each and every worker will do his utmost to give his highest output and will never destabilize operations and give competitors an upper hand by lost production and unhealthy working atmosphere. Maruti should spare no ammunition in its hunt for unwanted elements among the workers who create such chaotic scenes. .Having worked in a multinational company in Mumbai where we faced the ire of a militant trade union leader of our times I am fully aware of the psychological pressure on the management by a handful of disgruntled and misguided minority of the workforce. It is truly a disturbing experience for Maruti and the company should move forward in the right direction like Tatas after a bitter experience similar to one in Maruti but fortunately much before the full investment in such chaotic places.
