Revival of Burn Standard and Braithwaite Co. Ltd.
After the announcement in the Lok Sabha in the matter of revival of Burn Standard and Braithwaite Co. Ltd. Mamata Banerjee had started a dialogue with the concerned ministries for a waiver of accumulated liabilities of two PSUs.
“We welcome the Railway Minister’s proposal for the revival of Burn Standard and Braithwaite Co. Ltd. But the question is how the companies will be revived? Will they be departmentalised with the Railway Board?” asked the CITU, West Bengal unit secretary.
The trade union wing of AITMC, Indian National Trinamool Trade Union Congress (INTTUC) was however, confident of her plans for the revival of these two units.
The president of the union, Sobhandeb Chatterjee said: “The decision is a milestone for Bengal’s revival. The Left parties have been using this issue for political mileage only. Now, Mamata Banerjee has shown that she is willing to back the downtrodden and the workers.”

CRIMINAL LIABILITY ON THE EMPLOYERS
Under the Tea Act 1953, the Central Government has vast regulatory powers particularly in relation to employers who have defaulted in the payment of wages and PF dues. Under Section 16D of the Act the Central Government and the Tea Board can initiate stringent measures against the tea undertakings or units if they are managed in a manner highly detrimental to the tea industry or to public interest. Central Government should immediately takeover the closed gardens under Section 16E of the Tea Act 1953.
The employers who have misappropriated the dues should be prosecuted under Section 405 of the Indian Penal Code i.e. criminal breach of trust.
The managements violated their statutory obligations by misappropriating huge amounts from the workers' earned wages, salaries, bonus, rations, earned leave, provident funds, gratuity, and life insurance. They also evaded their liabilities to the government exchequer.
Many operational gardens are also following this trend of not paying the wages/salaries in time, not disbursing cereals in due time, not depositing the PF amount, not paying gratuity, wages and are pushing the workers and their dependants into starvation and death. On the other hand the owners still have assets both in the closed garden and in other businesses that can be used to recover these dues. The State Government should therefore be asked to legal steps necessary to recover these dues. Receiver should be appointed for reluctant owners, and their assets should be sold off to pay moneys due to the workers as wages, provident fund etc. Under the law, it is possible for the establishment’s property and the other property of the owner to be attached and criminal cases to be filed against employers.
