End politically motivated transfers in Kerala State Road Transport Corporation, says KSRTEA
Balachandran said the association had brought the issue to the attention of the Transport Minister at a couple of meetings, as the transferred employees mainly belong to the association, and he initially agreed to resolve it. However, he later backed away from his promise following pressure from the employees’ trade union affiliated with the Indian National Trade Union Congress (INTUC).Later, the employees, who held a fast in front of the Transport Bhavan, were forcibly removed from the venue by the police. This prompted the association to launch a strong protest, with its working president, C.K.
