Bengaluru: The indefinite strike called by employees of the four State-run Road Transport Corporations- KSRTC, BMTC, NWKRTC and NEKRTC, seeking fulfilment of their demands, ended on the fifteenth day of the strike yesterday, a day after the Karnataka High Court observed that it was not the right time for any strike, with the country reeling under COVID-19 crisis. The withdrawal of the strike has brought huge relief to the commuters, who had faced a lot of inconvenience during the 15-day strike period, despite the operation of private buses.
The employees had launched indefinite strike from Apr.7, to press the Government for fulfilment of various demands, including payment of salary on par with the Sixth Pay Commission.
