Ananova - Librarian's semi-naked protest

Would you go this far to have your library job become a permanent position?
Ananova - Librarian's semi-naked protest: "A librarian in India has vowed not to appear fully clothed at work until his job is made permanent
For the last two weeks, Achal Singh has attended to his duties while wearing only underpants and one slipper.
The 43-year old, who works at a government library in Morena, Madhya Pradesh, is still a temporary employee, despite having worked there for 12 years.
Visitors to the library react with shock when they see the barely clad man hard at work, according to the Deccan Chronicle
Mr Singh said: 'I belong to the backward caste. Hence my job has not been regularised. I will not wear clothes until I get justice.'"
