According to sources, police have been deployed at the company's factory at Manesar in Haryana.

When contacted, company officials said strike "was a matter between the contractors and their workers and HMSI has nothing to do with it".

Production at the factory has not been hit, the officials said.

The contractual workers struck work just days after the management signed a three-year agreement with the company's labour union.
