Drivers of the 108 ambulance service by the GVK Emergency Management and Research Institute observed a fast in front of the Gandhipuram Central bus stand on Thursday seeking that their demands for ensuring better working conditions be conceded.
In the event of their struggle not yielding results, the drivers and paramedical staff have planned to mobilise the ambulance drivers of EMRI 108 across the State and resort to a relay fast.
The drivers had already petitioned the District Collector on July 11 and had on July 13 held talks for resolving the demands and issues placed by them.
