In one state, the Chief Minister was invited to the annual conference of a union where
union elections were also scheduled. The Chief Minister inaugurated the conference
and observed as follows: ?I propose that you elect Mr. XYZ as your president and the
president in turn elect his team?. Before the members could understand the significance
of what the Chief Minister had said there was a big round of applause from the
audience?presumably orchestrated by supporters of the Chief Minster?s nominee for
president-ship of the union. Before anyone could say anything, quite a few queued up
and began to garland Mr. XYZ. Mr. XYZ then rose and announced the names of his
nominees. The lections concluded. Those who were elected were happy about the
smooth and cordial manner in which the elections had been held. Referring to two cases
in recent past in neighbouring factories, they said, in one, the rival unions spent a lot of
money in elections. From where the money had come? Would the ones who had spent
so much money not want to recover it in one form or another? Another elected person
was talking about how management manipulated the elections to have a ?company?
union. Some of the people who had aspired to contest the elections were dismayed but
could not do much because of the atmosphere in which the whole thing had happened.
Questions:
a) Discuss the problems of trade union democracy.
b) Comment on the case.
c) What is your suggestion in this regard? [10]
