Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy has assured State government employees that their pending issues, including payment of dearness allowance, will be discussed in the State Cabinet meeting scheduled on Tuesday.
The government will also take a decision on the continuance of over 1,100 retired employees in different departments. Employees suffered during the past 10 years as the previous Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) government did not give them an opportunity to raise their problems. The Congress has, therefore, included employees’ problems in its manifesto and was committed to redress their grievances, he said.
The Chief Minister was speaking at a meeting with the representatives of different employee unions here on Sunday. He said members of former Chief Minister and BRS president K. Chandrasekhar Rao’s family were made honorary presidents of all unions and they were not bothered about the employees’ issues.
