Talks between the TGSRTC JAC and the State government concluded successfully after the government agreed to implement 10 percent PRC, merge RTC with the government, and conduct union elections.
The much-awaited talks between the Telangana government-appointed committee and the TGSRTC Joint Action Committee ended in deadlock, paving the way for an indefinite RTC strike from midnight. Despite appeals from senior officials for four weeks’ time to address concerns, unions rejected the proposal.
