VIJAYAWADA: The State Road Transport Corporation (APSRTC) employees have decided to support the protest call given by APNGOs and other employees’ associations demanding the immediate withdrawal of PRC GOs issued by the state government.
Palisetty Damodar Rao, general Secretary of APSRTC Employees Union (EU), said that they are losing a PRC and other privileged benefits.
“Though we are officially declared as government employees, we are losing many benefits. State government failed to pay 2017 PRC arrears worth ₹700 crore for the last three years. We usually have a different health scheme and the government now included us in EHS which is not acceptable,” Damodar Rao said.
While supporting the protests of employees’ associations we will also pressurise the government to resolve the demands of RTC employees, he added.
