General Secretary of the VSS, Ranjan Jayalal stated that yesterday’s (August 3) token strike was a great success adding that if the workers resort to a full-scale strike it will have terrible consequences.
He stated that the government will have until next Wednesday (August 10) to pay salary arrears to the CEB workers.
