Reportedly protester Mausin Akhtar claimed "The company is not listening to our demands and forcing us to deliver beef and pork against our will. Hindus have a problem is delivering beef while Muslims do not want to deliver pork. Our Hindu friends are having a problem in delivering beef and they are denying doing so. Furthermore it's been heard that in few days we have to deliver Pork, which we have also refused to do and we are not ready to deliver such things on any condition. We are forced to deliver such things and we have been on strike for a week now".



Another employee claimed "They (company) is playing with our religious sentiments. The company is also threatening us. The company asks us to deliver any kind of order to the customer. We, the Hindus, were asked to deliver beef while in coming days our Muslims brothers will be asked to deliver pork. This is not acceptable. We demand company not to play with our religious sentiments and also payouts should also be revised”. Moreover when reacting on the same, Minister for Irrigation in West Bengal government, Rajib Banerjee said that the organization should not force any person to go against their religion.
