(3) No workmen in any strike shall blockade shops or factories or interfere with their masters doing their own work. (Explanation) A strike is a legitimate movement of workmen against their masters. But blockade is an aggressive move- ment inimical to the general peace and the master should not be compelled in any strike to suspend his own work. There- fore in order to maintain general peace and to deter the
workmen from reckless activities, the above provision is
made.
(4) Until registration has been approved by Government, no tam
labour union shall use any name ather, than that of Prepar-
ation Office, or shall collect any membership fees or form
pickets or self-defence corps to force people to join
membership.
(Explanation
Our Party and Government have spared no
effort to protect the freedom of assembly of the workmen. But it is necessary to require all unions to go through a definite procedure of registration so as to keep them under systematic guidance and to enable us to afford them pro- tection. Of late, some rascally workers with a view to gain have often hung up sign-boards of unions, and hired unem- ployed people to go and demand from the Authoritied approval of their registration and moreover have deceived the work- men and required them to give them remuneration for having
secured the registration of the unions. They have evan
formed armed pickets and sent them out to force people to
become members. This is not only prejudicial to the objects
of Goverment in guiding and protecting the workmen, but
will also give restless scoundrels a chance to deprive the
true workmen of all their advantages. Therefore in order
to protect the interests of the true workmen and to prevent
trouble caused in the name of unions, the above regulation
is made.
