Not a very common sight in most parts of the Chennai city. Obviously present and visible at the Industrial parts of the city like, Perambur, Thiruvotriyur, Moolakadai, Ennore etc., yes the Trade Unions and its offices. Though there are a very few trade unions present these days and even those are seemingly quiet than those Revolting days of the unions. One sore point among many workers are such unions are not being allowed to be setup at the Electronics Industrial estate areas like Sriperumbudur etc.

One such at Thiruvotriyur High Road of the Wimco Matches Factory. (smokers / lamp lighting friends … remember those “home lites”, “cheeta fight” matches …)
