The Secunderabad Cantonment Board Contract Workers Union (AITUC) thanked Shri Ganesh Garu, Secunderabad Cantonment Legislator, and Chief Minister Mr. Enumula Revanth Reddy for their efforts to merge the Secunderabad Cantonment Board’s civil area into the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC).
In a letter to Shri Ganesh Garu, the Union highlighted issues like labor problems, inadequate infrastructure, irregularities in attendance and salaries, lack of facilities, and excessive workload in the cantonment. They mentioned the lack of biometric systems leading to corruption, with some opposing the merger to protect corrupt interests.
The union praised the state government’s decision and hoped it would bring relief to workers and residents. They requested that the entire board area be considered as one circle under GHMC for uniform development and resolution of contract labor issues.
MLA Sri Ganesh Garu assured that all issues would be addressed and resolved, promising welfare schemes for those in need. Despite opposition from those benefiting from corruption, he expressed confidence in achieving the merger under CM Sri Revanth Reddy Garu’s leadership for the benefit of both people and contract employees.
Participants in the meeting included Narasimha, President of the Contract Employees Union, and Sanki Ravinder, General Secretary of Vikas Manch.
