Telangana State BJP president G Kishan Reddy here on Monday demanded that the TRS government solve problems of striking Electricity and RTC employees’ on war-footing by holding talks with the respective Unions.
In a pressnote here, Kishan Reddy stated that the people in the State were suffering severely due to the strikes by Electricity and RTC employees. Alleging that power supply was being interrupted frequently due to the strike by electricity employees, he stated the poor and middle class people were facing hardships due to RTC strike. He felt the employees went on strike because of the government’s failure in fulfilling the assurances made in the past.
The BJP leader demanded that Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao immediately concede just demands of the employees of these two departments. He said it was not proper on KCR’s part to oust contract and outsourced employees’ though he had promised to regularize their services after achieving Telangana State. He also said it was unfortunate that the Chief Minister, who had assured the employees of Central government salaries and assured to assist the RTC in all aspects, made them to go on strike. (NSS)
