We had given a notice of strike. No salaries have been paid to us for three months and nearly 150 posts of supervisory staff, including sanitation guards and assistant inspectors, are vacant but no one is paying any attention to it, Mr Vaid said.

New Delhi: Sanitation workers on Tuesday dumped garbage outside the residence of Trilokpuri's Aam Admi Party( AAP) MLA Raju Dhingan in protest against the negligence of both the Delhi government and the Centre.

On Monday, after meeting a delegation of sanitation workers, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia told reporters that Rs. 119 crore has been provided to the East Delhi Municipal Corporation (EDMC) for providing salaries.

The indefinite strike by the sanitation workers of the EDMC, which entered its fourth day on Tuesday, left the trans-Yamuna region reeling under a garbage crisis, with waste dumped in the open in several areas from Laxmi Nagar to Patparganj.
