Hyderabad: Telangana opposition leaders on Wednesday urged Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan to intervene in the RTC workers' strike and take necessary steps to end the struggle on their demands.

A delegation comprising Telugu Desam Party (TDP) State unit chief L Ramana, Telangana Jana Samiti (TJS) president M Kodandaram, CPI State secretary Chada Venkat Reddy, senior Congress leader and former Minister J Geeta Reddy and BJP leader Mohan Reddy called on the Governor at Raj Bhavan and submitted the representation.

The delegation urged the Governor to take action against TSRTC in-charge MD Sunil Sharma for filing a false affidavit before the High Court levelling baseless allegations against them.

They also informed the Governor that they would meet the President and Union Ministers in this regard.

Addressing media persons after the meeting, Kodandaram alleged that there was no response from the government even after the advice of the High Court to initiate parleys with the RTC unions on their demands. He also alleged that Sunil Sharma was trying to politicise the issue by levelling baseless allegations against the Opposition political parties. L Ramana said they requested the Governor to remove Sunil Sharma from the post. They also demanded that the government take back 48,000 employees of the corporation and allow them to resume work. Congress leader Geeta Reddy alleged that Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao was behaving like a dictator on the issue of the ongoing RTC strike.
