Update: 2019-10-21 14:31 IST
The government does not have enough funds to pay September salary to RTC employees, said the government's counsel to the high court.
The council also told the court the strike called by the RTC employees is against the law. However, the petitioner said that not paying salaries after working is also against the law. The plea was adjourned.
The High Court on Wednesday ordered the government to pay salaries for September to all employees by October 21. The government's counsel said that payment of salaries would be difficult as they are not attending duties.
Meanwhile, the strike called by the RTC unions entered 17th day.
