Congress condemns RTC MD's statement
Congress MLA T Jagga Reddy on Tuesday condemned the statement of the RTC in-charge managing director Sunil Sharma that they would not allow the RTC workers to resume duties.
Hyderabad: Congress MLA T Jagga Reddy on Tuesday condemned the statement of the RTC in-charge managing director Sunil Sharma that they would not allow the RTC workers to resume duties. He wanted to know under what authority the RTC MD has made such a statement.
Speaking to the media, he said the State government did not fulfil a single demand of RTC workers even after calling off strike after 52 days.
He stated that the demands of the RTC workers were justified. Stating that the corporation was set up for the benefit of the poor, he alleged that Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao was trying to privatise the corporation.
Jagga Reddy said that there was no scope for the opposition to speak on people's issues as the government was creating troubles for them.
Referring to leaders like TSPSC Chairman Ghanta Chakrapani, Mallepalli Laxmaiah, Allam Narayana, D Vittal, Swamy Goud, G Devi Prasad, Karam Ravinder Reddy, Rajender and Mamata, he wondered as to why these intellectuals were not reacting on the "atrocities" of the State government.
Reddy said he was writing a letter to his party high command on the issue of the RTC workers. He further said the Congress would make the RTC into a public sector undertaking even if the present chief minister made it into a private entity.
