The employee unions have announced that as many as 4,200 buses would remain in the roadways workshops or bus stops and won’t ply Tuesday. Trade unions suspect a move to privatise the transport services with the issuance of bus permits to the private players. In April, the state government and roadways employees unions had reached a consensus to end the strike on its fourth day. Sarbat Singh Poonia, general secretary, Haryana Roadways Workers Union, said, “The transport unions have decided to go on strike because the government has failed to honour the compromise reached between both parties in April.”For all the latest India News, download Indian Express App
