KOLLAM, FEB. 8. The district unit of the Action Council of State Employees and Teachers today held a demonstration in front of the civil station complex here to extend support to the strike notice given to the State Government by the State leadership of the council.

As per the notice, the employees will resort to an indefinite strike from February 22.

A meeting that followed was inaugurated by the NGO Union State secretariat member, K. Sasindran.
