Employees of the 108 Arogya Kavacha ambulance service have temporarily deferred their proposed strike following assurances from Health Department officials that their demands would be discussed with the Health Minister.

The employees had announced that they would stay away from duty from 10 p.m. on Wednesday (October 14), citing the government’s failure to address their demands, including a revision of wages. However, the strike was postponed as the Health Minister has gone abroad and talks with him could not be held immediately, said Paramashiva, vice-president of the Suvarna Karnataka Arogya Kavacha (108) Employees’ Association.
