Around 150 employees in Uttarakhand have been asked to go on leave without pay by Reliance Retail due to the delay in the opening of the stores in the state, report agency sources.
The protest from local traders and farmers is believed to be causing the delay in the opening of the stores. In the state of Uttar Pradesh, a directive from the government made the company close all its Reliance Fresh stores, which sold farm produce. This resulted in the company sacking around 1,000 employees and terminating lease agreements of commercial properties, earlier this year.
The company is likely to mull over the issue of whether to open the stores at all, by the end of January.
