The Joint committee of all the producers associations have decided to ensure full protection & security to all producers who make entertainment content who have been asked to do their work without any tension because if they face any disruption or disturbance in the work or shooting by the trade unions they should remember the State Government as well as Police Department have assured full safety and protection to all producers and any producer facing any threat of extortion or disruption / disturbance of work should immediately file Police complaint in the nearest Police station and also immediately inform their association so that immediate action can be initiated against the parties indulging in any unfair labour practices.
