AIADMK general secretary Edappadi K. Palaniswami and AMMK founder T.T.V. Dhinakaran on Monday criticised the DMK government for attempting to hire bus drivers and conductors for State-run transport public sector undertakings (PSUs) through a private agency.

In a statement, Mr. Palaniswami also urged the government to provide employment to over 1,000 people on compassionate grounds.

Several lakh youth had registered themselves as candidates and applied for these posts. They were the ones who should be recruited, he said.
