In a release, Mr. Murthy said his talks with Telangana Joint Action Committee president Kodandaram ended in a fruitful manner as he explained the leader the difficulties faced by the common people owing to the stir.
“The proposed rail roko will hamper the travel plans of many who wish to join duty after Dasara holidays. If they fail to turn up, their careers will be in jeopardy,” he added.
