The Consultative Committee of Plantation Associations (CCPA), the apex body of tea producing associations in the country, has urged the Darjeeling Terai Dooars Plantation Labour Union (DTDPLU) to restore normalcy by withdrawing the embargo on tea despatches from the tea estates located in Darjeeling hills to enable the producers to fulfil their commitments and obligations to buyers, according to a release issued by CCPA.
CCPA has made it clear that it is willing to initiate discussion on its charter of demands “in conformity with well established practice of concluding a composite agreement covering all sections of West Bengal tea industry.”
CCPA has also informed DTDPLU that it has urged the West Bengal Labour Department to immediately convene a meeting for commencement of discussion on revision of wages in accordance with the charters of demands received from several tea workers' unions in the State.
