82,000 Ordnance Factory Board employees on strike: Why South Block is worried about the month-long strike?
This @OFB_India strike will embolden the Pakistanis. It is absolutely ill-advised at this juncture. The import lobby is celebrating, of course. The weekly requirement of 155 mm rounds will now have to be imported.
