The federation said it was shocked to learn about the appointment of a private consultant for the corporatisation move.

Defence civilian employees feel corporatisation would impact functioning of the defence sector.

In a release, the AIDEF said that defence ministry was spending taxpayers money by appointing consultants and committees for the corporatisation move.

Defence employees in Ordnance Factory Tiruchirappalli (OFT) said that they would also participate in the protest.
