Supermax Company employees in Thane have begun protesting outside Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde's residence. Workers have assembled in large numbers, holding placards. A sizable force of police has been stationed in the area since the protest began.
In Thane, Supermax was a large blade-making business based close to Teen Hat Naka. For the past three years, the employees here have not received their salaries. Three years have passed since this company was shut down. Since then, the owner has not made any payments to the workers of this business. The workers have been protesting for their pay for the past few months.
When Eknath Shinde was Maharashtra's chief minister last year, the workers staged a protest. Local officials, Eknath Shinde, local corporators, and MLAs had promised the workers that they would receive their money back at that time. The workers haven't yet gotten their money, though. At last, all of these workers have demonstrated on the street outside the home of now-Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde.

Since July 2022, the employees of this Supermax firm have not gotten a penny of their salaries. They were sacked, and the company made a direct announcement in December 2022 that it was closing without warning. Therefore, the agitated workers are asking Eknath Shinde to respond in writing about their issue. Additionally, the agitators have claimed that the company's owner has fled to London.
