Striking pourakarmikas in Mysuru will resume their work from Tuesday with the State-wide indefinite agitation withdrawn on Monday following assurance from the State government. The pourakarmikas were on strike seeking regularisation of their services and other demands for the past four days.
Former Mysuru Mayor Narayan, who was leading the agitation in Bengaluru, told The Hindu over phone that the strike has been called off as the government has “given in writing to look into their demands in three months”. “Considering the government’s promise after our meeting, the pourakarmikas across the State will resume their work from Tuesday,” he said.
Mr. Narayan added: “We will wait for three months for the Chief Minister to act on our demands.”
