AP JAC seeks immediate talks on PRC, DA dues; State-level meeting on September 5
Issues related to PRC, dearness allowances, surrender leave, and problems of outsourcing employees should be considered immediately, say JAC leaders
The Andhra Pradesh Joint Action Committee (AP JAC) has urged the government to promptly address their longstanding demands, according to a press conference held on Sunday, August 23, 2026. The organization's president, A. Vidyasagar, and secretary general, K.S.S. Prasad, highlighted the need to resolve issues concerning the Pay Revision Commission (PRC), dearness allowance (DA), surrender leave, and the challenges faced by outsourcing employees.
Despite presenting these demands to the government and engaging in discussions with Group of Ministers, the JAC has not received a satisfactory response, according to Mr. Vidyasagar.
The AP JAC has given the government until September 5 to engage in talks and consider the legitimate demands of the committee. If a response is not forthcoming, the committee plans to convene a State-level meeting on that date, as announced by Mr. Prasad. The leaders intend to unveil an action plan to press their demands on September 5, Mr. Vidyasagar stated, emphasizing the importance of resolving the issues amicably through dialogue.
