According to a statement from Raj Bhavan, the Governor has granted the assent to the Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (Absorption of Employees into Government Service Bill-2023). “The Governor, having thoroughly assessed the government's actions in response to her ten recommendations, which were made in consideration of employee representations and the overall welfare of the corporation, she said she was satisfied that these recommendations have been diligently addressed,” said the statement.

The Governor recommended that the ownership of the lands, assets, and properties of the TSRTC should vest with the Corporation itself for its sole and exclusive use, even after the absorption of the RTC employees as government employees. The state Assembly had passed the Bill on August 6.
