With the Public Transport Department (APSRTC) Employees Unions’ Joint Action Committee gearing up to join the proposed strike against the PRC from the midnight of February 6, the management of the corporation is making alternative arrangements to operate buses in their absence causing minimum inconvenience to the public.
“We are trying our best to see that our employees do not go for strike by explaining to them the reasons why they should not become part of this protest,” said the RTC Managing Director Ch. Dwaraka Tirumala Rao.
Speaking to The Hindu, he asserted that there were strong reasons why the management was trying to dissuade the employees. “For instance, the PRC is not yet implemented for RTC and as on today, GOs with regard to PTD employees are not yet issued. You don’t know where you stand and you want to go for strike,” he said.
