O. Panneerselvam calls for early provision of terminal benefits to retired STC employees
The Hindu
AIADMK coordinator O. Panneerselvam on Monday reiterated his demand for the early provision of terminal benefits to retired employees of the State Transport Corporations (STCs).
In a statement, he referred to reports in sections of the media citing employees’ associations stating that despite the State government and the corporations recording an increase in their revenue compared with 2020, benefits were not made available to the former employees.
There were reports of indebtedness among retired staff of the corporations, and they were expecting the government to come to their rescue in light of the lessening intensity of the COVID-19 pandemic, Mr. Panneerselvam added.

Former CM B.S. Yediyurappa had challenged the first information report registered on March 14, 2024, on the alleged incident that occurred on February 2, 2024, the chargesheet filed by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), and the February 28, 2025, order of taking cognisance of offences afresh by the trial court.
