Bengaluru: With the government yet to respond positively to the demands of the employees of state-run transport corporations in Karnataka, they have decided to go on an indefinite strike from April 7,
Earlier last week, Deputy Chief Minister Laxman Savadi had promised that the state government would take a final call on revising their salaries in a week, however, the government has not yet responded positively.
Now several employee unions of the Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC), North-East Karnataka Road Transport Corporation (NEKRTC), North West Road Transport Corporation (NWRTC), and Bengaluru Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) have begun an awareness campaign, in a bid to sensitise the general public on their demands and why a strike is “inevitable.”
Employees have been demanding salaries on par with recommendations made by the 6th Pay Commission since last December.
