HYDERABAD: TPCC chief A Revanth Reddy on Monday slammed Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao for “delaying” emoluments of sanitation workers in gram panchayats and municipal bodies. In an open letter to the chief minister, he stated that the lives of sanitation workers have become worse than bonded labourers.
Slamming the State government for not upholding the rights of sanitation workers, Revanth said that the State has failed in ensuring basic rights. He said that the families of workers are deprived of food as well as basic facilities as the State government is not paying wages on time.
“Kongari Babu, a water man of Bibipet of Kamareddy district, died by suicide as he was unable to meet his household expenses. His employer, the government, has not paid three months’ wages, and he couldn’t provide meals to his six-month pregnant wife and two children.
Due to your inability, Telangana is witnessing such heartwrenching incidents,” Revanth said. He demanded that the goverment pay `10 lakh ex-gratia to Babu’s family.
