With no signs of the Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TSRTC) strike on October 5 being called off, transport officials in the state are trying to rope in private bus owners and drivers to ensure smooth service on Dasara, which falls on October 8. This is after two rounds of talks between the nine unions and the state government failed, with barely 24 hours left for the strike to begin.
The corporation has written to depot managers to hire private bus owners and ensure that they hire their drivers and conductors. The corporation is even making a database of all contractual and casual employees in the RTC so that their service would be availed during the strike. The children of the staff and retired employees of the RTC have also come forward as volunteers. The RTC has also requested the Road Transport Offices (RTOs) to provide them with a list of all eligible drivers of heavy passenger vehicles with a minimum of 18 months experience.
