Andhra Pradesh Electricity Employees Joint Action Committee here on Saturday demanded that the State government regularize the services of power contract workers without any conditions on par with their counterparts in the Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation.
Speaking to media persons, JAC president R Sai Babu warned that he would go on “fast-unto-death” if the Electricity Board failed to concede their demand immediately. Stating that contract workers were serving the electricity department for several years, Sai Babu said they would be constrained to launch indefinite strike once again for keeping the State united. He also declared that they would extend total support to the APNGOs strike. (NSS)
