Indian laws have always recognized the workers’ right to strike. The Supreme Court of India has invariably maintained the “right to strike” as not a fundamental right, but a legal right that workers can exercise as part of collective bargaining, wage bargaining and dispute resolution.

However, several court rulings have also been in opposition to the right to strike, be it by political parties or trade unions. Some favourable court rulings on the workers’ right to strike are: the Gujarat Steel Tubes v. Mazdoor Sabha AIR 1980 SC 1896, where the right to strike was held as integral to collective bargaining and as supported by social justice.

Indian laws comprising sections 22, 23, and 24 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 imply that industries, such as hospitals, government departments, educational institutions and clubs, have the right to strike. Strikes may be legal or illegal, based on the procedure for strike, and it is decided by the judiciary.
