The Tamil Nadu government has registered the Samsung India Workers Union (SIWU), after 1,200 Samsung workers in Sriperumbudur held a strike demanding better wages and working conditions. The approval followed a Madras High Court order, and came after the workers ended their protest when Samsung agreed to their demands, including no retaliation against striking workers. The union, supported by the Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU), marks a victory for the workers' right to organize.
