She demanded that in order to streamline their salary, authorities should provide them remuneration from the UT budget. She said that the present dispensation must take some concrete steps in this regard so that salary was provided to them regularly.

“We shall wait for ten days and if our genuine demand is not redressed we will launch a massive strike but I am sure that authorities will not force us to come on roads,” Abida added.
