Kolkata March 29 Even as a section of workers is still protesting at Uttarpara unit of Hindustan Motors Ltd, the company management has ruled out plans to announce a closure or declare a lockout at the factory. This was categorically stated at a press conference here today by Ms Soni Shrivastav, General Manager, Corporate Communications, C.K. Birla Group of Companies.

In this pursuit, we will always be open to discussions with the registered trade unions once normalcy is restored."
