Government and RTC employees harden their stand over salary revision
Most of the State road transport corporation (RTC) buses went off the road from Tuesday night, signalling the start of an indefinite strike mainly over employees’ salary revision demands. The strike, scheduled to start on Wednesday morning began much earlier, hours after the State government ruled out any negotiations, catching commuters unawares.
Buses are expected to mostly stay off the road on Wednesday. Though the strike is spearheaded by the newly formed KSRTC Employees League and other unions have not backed it, the strike is likely to be total, sources said. Though the government has roped in private operators to make alternative arrangements, inconvenience is expected, sources said.
