Chennai

The protesters claimed that staff who joined duty in Chennai, Tiruvallur and Kancheepuram three months ago have been working all the days and have not been given a day's off yet. The staff who are on the waiting list should be called to the duty soon, they demanded. They said many ambulances are lying idle in all the districts without operating and the government should utilise them for the benefit of the people. The agitators also demanded that all the ambulance drivers in Chennai and the districts be provided with proper preventive gears immediately to fight coronavirus.
