Hyderabad: Less than two hours after TS Electricity Trade Unions JAC leader Padma Reddy announced, in the presence of energy minister K. Jagadeeshwar Reddy that their proposed strike from December 6 was called off, other leaders of JAC said majority unions had not withdrawn the strike.
These union leaders said they would meet on Sunday to take a final decision. Earlier, the minister told the media that in tune with Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao’s directions, the power sector officials would prepare guidelines for regularisation of outsoured staff working in Genco, Transco and Discoms in Telangana. Mr Padma Reddy had said the JAC was withdrawing the strike as the government had agreed to give in writing that the services of outsourced staff would be regularised.
