Lucknow: The Federation of Diploma
Engineers, Uttar Pradesh, in its 3rd phase programme in the wake of hunger
strike marched with mass crowd on road at Sikandarbag Lucknow on Wednesday.
The state president, Er SK
Pandey and general secretary, Sudhir Pawar, told that these engineers are
agitated because of evasive policy of government against the diploma holders.
Many efforts by the office bearers have been tried through the talks, letters
and memorandum, but no avail yet. The staging of hunger strike is the result of
no affirmative response from government.
Mr Sudhir said, “The outstanding
arrear dues of 6th pay commission should be paid earliest and the allowance of
pay should be transacted to the account through treasury in future.”
SK Pandey, the federation president, told, “ The engineers are going to boycott their duties from 18th February to 24; if the government is deafen for our bonafide demand, then by 25th February will be on indefinite strike onwards.”
