Explanation

Strike is one of the oldest and the most effective weapons of labour in its struggle, with capital for securing economic justice. The basic strength of a strike lies in the labour’s privilege to quit work and thus, brings a forced readjustment to the conditions of employment. Combined work can never be taken as service oriented.
