Warning the employees against damage to buses and public assets in the name of strike, he said such things will be dealt with very seriously. With the employees of road transport corporations set to go on a strike on wage related issues from April 7, the Karnataka government on Tuesday warned of strict action and ruled out any negotiations with them.

“The government has agreed eight out of nine demands and we have already announced their implication. But, it is not possible to meet the ninth demand of implantation of the 6th pay commission. We appeal the employees to call off the strike,” said chief secretary P Ravi Kumar following a meeting of officials convened by chief minister BS Yediyurappa. Hike in their salary in accordance with the recommendation of the 6th pay commission on par with the government employees has been the main demand of the employees of all four transport corporations. “The government wants to effect an 8 per cent salary hike immediately, but the election code of conduct prevents it. I have written to the Election Commission of India seeking its permission. The salary hike will be announced immediately if we get the approval, otherwise we need to wait till the elections are over,” said Ravi Kumar.
