However, the administration did not implement it and filed an appeal against the order,” the union stated. The union also demanded regularisation of services of contractual employees as per the notification issued by the Union Government. The union also requested the authorities to settle the case of EPF of sanitation workers deployed in the PGIMER through contractors.
