Appoint new Pay Revision Commission immediately: YSRCP leaders
YSR Congress Party's employees and pensioners wing State Chairman N. Chandrasekhar Reddy and newly appointed General Secretary Bukkuru Umamaheswara Rao have urged the State government to constitute a new Pay Revision Commission (PRC) and provide interim relief to employees immediately.
In a meeting held with ex-chief minister Jagan Mohan Reddy at his camp office in Vijayawada on Wednesday, Mr. Chandrasekhar Reddy and Mr. Umamaheswara Rao and highlighted the troubles employees are facing in the TDP regime. The leaders compared the welfare measures implemented by the YSRCP administration during its regime and how they improved the welfare of employees.
In a press release, Mr. Umamaheswara Rao criticised the TDP government for not fulfilling its election promises regarding employees and pensioners welfare.
Mr. Umamaheswara Rao said: 'Although the TDP government is in power for one year, it has not appointed a PRC, despite many representations submitted by the employees associations.' He also pointed out delays in clearing pending applications related to payment of General Provident Fund (GPF) and other benefits for retired employees and officials.
Mr. Umamaheswara Rao thanked the former ministers Dharmana Prasada Rao and Dharmana Krishnadas for supporting him for the new post in the YSRCP.
