AITUC General Secretary and president of the action committee V S Abishegam said in a release that the committee had held a meeting to review the situation of the defunct mill and also the delay on the part of the government to settle the gratuity and other benefits of the workers who had retired either on attaining age of superannuation or preferred to retire under VRS.
