• Tamil Nadu was among the few states which
  worked hard to make the state an investment
  destination in the post-liberalization era of
  Indian economy. Involving bureaucratic bodies
  aimed at industrial development and bringing
  about transparency in policies, Tamil Nadus
  industrial development gained momentum. Soon it
  became home to many domestic and international
  business majors, who appreciated the amicable
  labor relations in the State. But, Tamil Nadus
  industrial relations took a severe hit as there
  was a sudden surge of labor disputes in the
  state. Four major disputes that involved
  industrial giants were severe enough to damage
  the investor friendly image of the state.

• With the blame game between the unions and
  companies continuing, the government is worried
  about the future investments. It is high time to
  understand that the strength of industrial
  relations would directly affect the economic
  growth of the state. While labour law reforms and
  amendments of major acts are under consideration,
  the future investment scenario might become bleak
  in Tamil Nadu. Among the partners, who is to be
  held responsible if the economic future of the
  state is affected the government, the
  managements or the unions? Labor unrest and
  disputes have adverse effects on economy and
  growth of a state. Discussing the growth
  strategies of Tamil Nadu, the case analyses the
  reasons for labour disputes in Tamil Nadu. There
  were four major labour disputes in 2009, the
  cases tarnished the image of Tamil Nadu. The
  perplexing labour laws in the state and the need
  of a collaborative action from the partners of
  Industrial development was the need of the hour.
