Around 6,000 employees serving as MRW, VRW and URW workers – disability and senior‑citizen rehabilitation staff – have launched an indefinite hunger strike at the Ramnagar Sub‑Collectorate. They demand job security after 19 years of service and request that the government consider regularising their positions. Ashok visited the protest site, collected a memorandum, and criticised the administration for not sending any representative to engage with the strikers.
