Leaders of the Public Transport Department (PTD-APSRTC) Employees’ Joint Action Committee have urged the management to implement the 11 th Pay Revision Commission (PRC) recommendations with immediate effect.
In a representation made to the corporation’s Vice-Chairman and Managing Director Ch. Dwaraka Tirumala Rao on Friday, JAC conveners Y. Srinivasa Rao and P. Damodar Rao said the inordinate delay in the implementation of the PRC was giving rise to doubts in the minds of the employees, who felt that they were at the crossroads after the merger of the APSRTC with the government and creation of the new department (PTD).
The JAC leaders said, contrary to the promise made to them that after the merger they would be entitled to all the perks and facilities on a par with the government employees, the PTD employees were still waiting for implementation of the PRC, which had been brought into force for their counterparts in other government departments nine months ago.
