Oil, port and electricity workers staged an agitation yesterday (03) demanding the withdrawal of the government's plan to sell 40% of the Yugadanav power plant to an American company, including the sale of national resources. Although the day of the strike was to be declared at the end of the day, the workers decided to strike after few days' because of the innocent people queuing for rice, gas, sugar, milk powder, cement, on these days.
