Hyderabad: Public transport will come to a standstill as auto rickshaws and TSRTC buses will go off roads on September 2 due to a nationwide bandh jointly called by major trade unions.
Nearly 80,000 auto rickshaws and 10,000 RTC buses will be off roads and nearly 50,000 RTC workers will be participating in the strike.
Trade unions on Tuesday said they will go ahead with nationwide strike on September 2, rejecting as completely inadequate the government’s 42 percent hike in minimum wage to Rs 350 per day.
