RTC Managing Director Sunil Sharma said the Telangana High Court had directed that 21 demands of employees should be discussed, but the unions wanted discussion on all their grievances, including merger of RTC with the government, which was not acceptable. The employees unions’ leader Aswathama Reddy earlier told reporters that they sought discussion on all their demands and alleged that the officials gave a wrong interpretation to the court order, besides “restricting the agenda”.
