Talks held between the board of directors of the Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB) and the striking KSEB Officers' Association (KSEBOA) on Wednesday remained inconclusive, even as the management responded strongly to the ongoing indefinite stir.
The KSEB issued orders reinstating M. G. Suresh Kumar and Jasmin Banu A. - two of the suspended KSEBOA state officebearers - in service, but they have been transferred from their present posts. Describing this step as ''vindictive,'' the CPI(M)-backed officers' association stated that it will continue with its indefinite stir outside the KSEB headquarters which entered the third day on Wednesday.
