Governor gives assent to Bill merging TSRTC staff with govt.

Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan has given her assent to the Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (Absorption of Employees into Government Service) Bill-2023 on Thursday.

This brings to an end the stalemate between the Raj Bhavan and the State government, which were at loggerheads ever since the passage of the Bill in the brief session of the Legislature a month ago. The Governor sought some clarifications after receiving the Bill and made recommendations requesting the State government to incorporate them into the Act. She wanted to know whether the State had obtained the concurrence of the Central government concerning the latter’s 30% stake in the corporation.

She sought the details of the number of permanent and temporary employees by their respective categories and depots as well as information about the employees working on contract, casual and any other basis other than the permanent status. The government was asked to provide details about the proposed legal regime in respect of non-permanent staff.
