Make Sakala Janula Samara Bheri grand success: RTC JAC

Karimnagar: Moved by the suicide of RTC woman conductor in Khammam district and vexed with the stubborn behaviour of the TRS government, the RTC employees of all 10 bus depots present in the undivided Karimnagar district have intensified their strike, which has been continuing for the past 24 days, by staging dharnas, taking out rallies and organising human chains at main centres in towns and cities along with conducting rasta rokos on Monday.

The RTC-JAC leaders in association with the leaders of Opposition parties staged dharna in front of Karimnagar bus depot-I. While the women RTC employees observed two minutes silence over the demise of their colleague, a woman conductor Niraja, who committed suicide in Khammam district.

They alleged that many RTC employees are going into depression and taking the extreme step of ending their lives as they are unable to take the pressure due to the harsh behaviour of the TRS government and Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao after winning Huzurnagar elections.

'Every department will incur some losses on certain days and will get profits also on other days. It is natural. Moreover, the RTC has more valuable lands than any other corporation or department present in the State. To grab and handover those lands to their party loyalists, KCR is trying to privatise the RTC,' they alleged.

They said that educationists, intellectuals and people of all sections noticed how rudely, the CM had spoken against the RTC employees. The massive public meeting 'Sakala Janula Samara Bheri', which will be held in protest against the government on October 30, will lay foundation for another 'Sakala Janula Samme', they said and appealed all sections of people to attend the meeting in large numbers and make it a grand success to teach the TRS government a fitting lesson.

Meanwhile, the passengers travelling in a bus of Korutla depot complained to the RTC employees, who were staging dharna, that the conductor was issuing tickets by writing on a paper slip. Reacting immediately, the RTC employees along with the left party leaders stopped the bus and handed over the conductor to the police.
