Hyderabad: Congress advises CM KCR to follow High Court directives on RTC strike
Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) Treasurer Gudur Narayana Reddy on Friday demanded that Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao followed the directives given by High Court to deal with the RTC strike.
Hyderabad (INN): Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) Treasurer Gudur Narayana Reddy on Friday demanded that Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao followed the directives given by High Court to deal with the RTC strike.
Gudur Narayana Reddy, in a media statement, said that the High Court has given clear directions to the State Government to invite RTC employees unions for talks at 10.30 am on Saturday, complete negotiation process in the next three days and appraise the court about the outcome by October 28. He feared that the Chief Minister might not obey the High Court directions as he did in the past. He advised KCR to set aside his personal ego and resolve the issues of RTC employees.
He pointed out that the High Court has made severe remarks against the State Government on various issues. The State Government was pulled up for not appointing a full-fledged Managing Director. He asked the Chief Minister to learn from mistakes at least now and behave in a democratic manner. He also appealed to Governor Dr. Tamilisai Soundararajan to intervene and direct the State Government to implement the HC directives on RTC issue
He also appealed to the people to support the RTC strike which has been going on in a peaceful manner. He announced that the Congress party would support the Telangana Bandh call on Saturday given by the RTC JAC. He said all sections of the society should support the bandh and make it successful as it is intended to seek justice for thousands of RTC employees.
The Congress leader condemned KCR for saying that strike has cause losses of over Rs. 150 crore. He said why KCR did not feel the same when he wasted more than Rs. 300 crore on the construction of his official residence Pragathi Bhavan.
Gudur Narayana Reddy said that the RTC workers were peacefully fighting for their rights by following the path of Mahatma Gandhi. However, he alleged that CM KCR was acting like a dictator and showing no inclination to resolve the issue by holding talks with the RTC employees. With his rude and dictatorial behaviour, he said KCR has distanced himself away from senior leaders like K. Keshava Rao.
He also demanded that the salaries of RTC workers for the month of September should be paid by Monday as directed by the High Court. (INN)
