Motor loaders cancel strike after meeting
Hindustan Times Mumbai
|July 23, 2025
BMC motor loaders were assured on Tuesday that no jobs would be lost once waste disposal is privatised.
Following a nearly two-month-long dispute with the BMC over the proposed privatisation of waste collection and transportation in the city, thousands of motor loaders—those who tip garbage into compactors—on Tuesday called off their impending strike after getting assurances that no jobs will be lost, according to union leaders.
The BMC will now proceed with its proposal to hire private contractors, with 24 companies showing interest, officials aware of the developments said. The move will purportedly save the civic body ₹160 crore every year.

A fine line
You've seen his work in films such as Kung Fu Panda and Coraline. Now, his board books aimed at very young readers (aged three to nine) have won a literary award. Why a prestigious prize for tales told in 30 lines or less?
