Addressing the gathering, MLC KS Lakshmana Rao demanded the government to reconsider the PRC GO and demanded 27 per cent fitment for the benefit of employees, teachers and other employees. He said that they will continue till the government accepts their demands.
Federation of Andhra Pradesh Teachers Organisations (FAPTO) state president Joseph Sudhir Babu opposed the PRC for ten years and criticised that there is no use of the PRC to the employees. He demanded the government to issue revised GO immediately. "The PRC should hike the salaries and benefits of the employees, but the PRC GO disappointed the employees."
They squatted on the road and raised slogans against the government and registered their protest.
