Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) employees are set to stage a protest against the state government, seeking the fulfilment of various demands. The BBMP Employees’ Welfare Association had warned of a work stoppage and demonstration if their demands were not met. The protest is expected to result in the closure of all BBMP offices on Thursday.
According to A Amrutraj, president of the BBMP Employees’ Welfare Association, the employees are facing a lack of administrative and medical facilities, and the corporation’s work has been disrupted due to the deputation of special commissioners and deputy commissioners in the administration department. He stated that permanent officers should be appointed immediately to address the administration’s needs.
Petitions were submitted to the Chief Minister, the Additional Chief Secretary of the Urban Development Department, and the BBMP Chief Commissioner, but so far, none of the demands have been fulfilled. The protest highlights the dissatisfaction and grievances of the BBMP employees, who are calling for immediate action to address their concerns. The state government is expected to take steps to resolve the issues and prevent any disruption in the corporation’s operations.
