Mean while the Chief Minister of the state Mr. Kiran Kumar Reddy had told that as the strike was only two days, hence no need to bother. The CM had wanted to run the services by the corporation at least in the Hyderabad city but it was not materialized. They could finally succeed to bring the secretariat employees from their living colonies by 30 busses.

They were stopped by security personnel at the NCC gate near the OU campus. The police have thrown some teargas shells to prevent them from taking out a rally.
