Licensed surveyors, RTC JAC leaders meet BRS leaders on their issues

HYDERABAD

A delegation of the licensed surveyors represented their problem of inordinate delay in taking a decision on the allotment of work and on their pay by the government to working president of the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) K.T. Rama Rao on Thursday.

The delegation expressed concern over non-allotment of work even months after their appointment. Over 5,000 licensed surveyors were also awaiting the government decision on their pay fixation. Speaking to the surveyors, Mr. Rama Rao said the government was doing injustice to the licensed surveyors. The Karnataka government had made arrangements ensuring respectable remuneration to the licensed surveyors, but in Telangana, the Congress government was doing injustice.

RTC JAC meets Harish

Meanwhile, a delegation of the TGSRTC Joint Action Committee met BRS Deputy Floor Leader in the Assembly T. Harish Rao on Thursday, submitted a memorandum, and appealed to him to raise their problems in the Assembly.

Speaking to the delegation Mr. Harish Rao alleged that the government was conspiring to privatise the RTC in the garb of introducing electric buses and demanded that the government immediately clear ₹2,804 crore dues to the RTC under the Mahalakshmi scheme. He blamed the government for extending subsidies only to the corporate companies at the cost of RTC by handing over the supply/manufacturing of over 2,000 electric buses.
