STAFF REPORTER

GUWAHATI, Sept 5: Members of the All Assam 108 Mrityunjoy Employees Association have launched indefinite work-cease from Wednesday across the state reiterating to fulfill their long-standing demands.

Notably, All Assam 108 Mrityunjoy Employees Association alleged that the Hyderabad-based GVK-EMRI has been giving false assurances and threatens to dismiss the employees on the slightest pretext. The Association also questioned the role of the state government stating that instead of looking into the employees’ allegations and demands it slapped the Essential Services Maintenance Act (ESMA) on the service and robbed them of the right to protest against injustice.

They further alleged that their increments were stopped in the financial year 2015-16. They are also being deprived of equal pay for equal work, they alleged.
