Apple’s contract manufacturer Wistron India has seen an escalation in its disagreement with a section of its contract workers over alleged non-payment of salaries and dues. The workers started throwing stones, and damaged some vehicles inside the factory. Some iPhones, which had been manufactured at the factory and were kept for export, were also looted by the workers, according to reports. While Wistron, which runs the factory, said that it had followed all laws and was supporting the authorities in their investigation, Apple said it had “ immediately launched a detailed investigation at Wistron’s Narasapura facility in India”. In this episode of the Business tit-bits our Business Editor Mr Akhilesh Bhargava shares his take on the matter. #Wistron #Apple #IPhone #China
