We hope and believe that in future this movement will definitely bring the success to get our legitimate demand fulfilled.

For upliftment of service and for bringing a good parity we will always demand to our Government for allowing the legitimate demand and we believe that our letter of demand will get proper weightage and Government will issue the necessary order for betterment of this service.
