Question
During an industrial dispute, workers surround management officials and prevent them from leaving their office to press for acceptance of demands. Which industrial-relations tactic is specifically identified by this encirclement and confinement?
The correct answer is
Gherao
Gherao. Its defining feature is workers surrounding management officials or their office and restricting their departure to exert pressure over demands. The described encirclement and confinement therefore identify gherao. A sit-down strike is identified by workers remaining at the workplace while withholding work; it does not by itself mean confining management.
