More than 400 workers of the factory on Tuesday submitted a memorandum to the government, through Morang CDO Suresh Adhikari, requesting it to take necessary initiatives to make the factory operational again.[break]
Stating that labor problem was not the only reason behind the factory´s closure, the workers in the memorandum have urged the government to intervene and bring the factory back into operation.
Surya Nepal had decided to close the garment factory permanently last week, citing lack of favorable working environment due to workers´ protest.
“We´ve been trying our best to bring the factory back into operation,” Adhikari said after receiving the memorandum.
