NL Sena: TSRTC-KCR Stand-Off

On November 6, Avila Naresh, 40, a bus driver for 15 years with the Telangana State Road Transport Corporation, committed suicide. He's reportedly the fourth TSRTC driver to have killed himself since over 48,000 TSRTC employees went on strike in early October, demanding job security, salary hike, maternity leave for women, and that the corporation be merged with the government. Two days after the strike began, the government sacked all 48,000 of them.
Why has Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao refused to negotiate with TSRTC unions, which supported him during the statehood movement? What's driving the demand to merge the TSRTC with the government? Could the ongoing standoff lead to the privatisation of the TSRTC? How is it likely to impact the people of Telangana? Become an NL Sena member and help us investigate.
