CHENNAI: Renault-Nissan India wants the government to recommend “adequate social distancing” parameters based on norms in other automakers in the state, it said in a filing reviewed by Reuters, amid an ongoing dispute with the workers union over safety.

“This honourable court may be pleased to … direct the officers of Directorate of Industrial Safety and Health to recommend what the “adequate social distancing” parameters are,” Renault-Nissan said in the filing.

M Moorthy, the general secretary of the Renault-Nissan India workers union, said there was a stalemate in talks with the company, and that a counsel for the union will file a counter petition.
