Colombo, June 27 (Daily Mirror) - The Grama Niladhari Trade Union Alliance (GNTUA) has decided to engage with a stern trade union action while refraining from their duties for three days for delaying to provide solutions to their several demands.

The co-conveners of the alliance claimed that the government had made quick decisions to resolve the issues of administrative officers.

"Our alliance has been discussing these issues for years, but solutions to our problems are continuously delayed," they said.

As a result, the alliance has decided to refrain from work for three days starting yesterday (26). The alliance also decided not to work on weekends and special government holidays.

"If the government does not respond to our demands, the alliance will continue their strike at the district level," they said.

Sack the lot. Withhold salary. Seems like a bunch of saboteurs.

Here we go again! Can someone tell me who is not on strike in SL. This is getting out of hand. Has SL celebrated debt re-structuring early? Someone has to pay for these massive wage bills.

Yes, NPP wants all sectors to continue strikes and protests so they could destabilize the country more.

Why do we need them? They don't exist in other countries. Good time to get rid of them especially since we are in an economic crisis

A useless set of people who think they are a gift from above to some people (especially the lesser knowledgeable ones) . When spoken to sternly and to the legal point, they come down to earth! Sadly the majority worship them.

Very true They think they hold governor position and we have to worship them. Also take bribes. They should have been kicked out long time ago.

Grama Niladharis are public servants like the teachers. We see many sections of the public service coming out in stages, Police closing road. Soon the government will have to close the whole country
