Abstract

On 2 September 2016, possibly the largest strike in India’s history—involving up to 150 million workers—caused major disruption to the country’s economy. This is just the latest in a series of strikes launched by the Indian trade unions in their fight against labour law reforms promoted by the right-wing government of Narendra Modi. A significant feature of these recent struggles has been the involvement of thousands of temporary and female workers.
