On March 10, 31 former workers were found guilty of murder and attempt to murder in the Maruti Suzuki Manesar plant violence case. The incident took place on July 18, 2012.

In the violence, Maruti Suzuki’s Human Resource Department General Manager Ashwin Kumar Dev was killed and over 50 others were injured.

The violence erupted as a result of continued strikes by workers at the auto major’s factory, demanding trade union rights.
