The intelligence note points out the same pattern of unrest in multinational companies like Sanmina, Ford, PPG Asian paints, Enfield India Limited among others. Also the note names a few other companies in Sriperumbudur, saying that “the group is making all efforts to intrude”. The note also suggests that necessary counter measures should be taken at the highest level to “thwart nefarious activities”.
The multinational electronic company Foxconn, according to trade unionists, did not allow labour unions inside the facility, and those involved in union activities did not have job security. Apparently, the issue, according to the intelligence note, was that the “left leaning forces" capitalised on the wretched working conditions inside the facility. It further stated that the New Democratic Labour Front, Peoples Democratic Youth Association, Peoples Rights Protection Centre and Students Uprising Movement took the agitation forward.
Sources in the Tamil Nadu government say that the involvement of these movements in the agitation, and also their links to movements outside India, is being probed.
