Ban on strikes

Sir, — V.R. Krishna Iyer's article "Ban on strikes: a judicial excess?" ( Oct. 2 ) is an eye-opener. As long as a strike does not degenerate into violence, it should be considered a legitimate weapon in the hands of trade unions. The ban strikes at the very roots of the trade union movement built assiduously over decades.
