Union Protests Land Transfer for Vijayawada Shopping Mall
The RTC employees in Vijayawada are upset because the government wants to give away their land to a company called Lulu Group to build a shopping mall.
They had used this land for the buses and passengers.
They believe the land is worth a lot of money and don't want to see it handed over to a private company.
They are holding meetings and plan to protest, trying to get the government to change its mind and protect what they see as an important asset.
APPTDC RTC Employees Union demands the withdrawal of GO MS No. 137.
The GO allocates 4.15 acres of RTC land in Vijayawada to Lulu Group for a shopping mall.
The land includes properties like Governorpet depots, the old bus stand, and a municipal park.
The Union values the land at nearly Rs 400 crore.
