Finance department agrees to give Rs 30 crore to KSRTC

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: In a move that has given some hope to Kerala state road transport corporation (KSRTC) employees, the finance department has agreed to grant Rs 30 crore more to the corporation for paying the salaries of the employees.

This is in addition to the Rs 30 crore that has already been given to the corporation for payment of salaries for April. Transport minister Antony Raju, who met finance minister K N Balagopal on Thursday seeking a solution to the crisis, said that the government is hopeful of disbursing the salaries from Friday. Since the corporation needs Rs 82 crore to pay the salaries, the corporation will mobilise the remaining Rs 22 crore by Friday.
