Mumbai: Nearly 450 families residing in and around Bhuleshwar, including on Pedder Road and Carmichael Road, may not get their daily supply of milk for three days as workers of the 175-year-old charitable organization, Bombay Panjrapole, began a three-day strike on Monday. “Workers will take away their daily entitlement of 1 litre each and the rest, they said, will be discarded,” said trustee and chairperson Rustom Jeejeebhoy. Mumbai Gumasta union chief Shankar Salvi said the stir is due to the trustees’ failure to agree to their demand of ensuring marriage and other emergency loans of up to Rs 2 lakh to workers against PF and salaries, as were being given earlier.
