Kochi: Times Square Lottery Centre is a venture opened by a strike-hit NRI investor to mock Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan’s invitation to invest in Kerala, media reports said.
Ex-service man Rajamohan of Kottayam started his lottery business donning a coat and suit imitating Pinarayi Vijayan in front of his bus which was prevented from operating by CITU workers seeking higher wages. They erected flags in front of the bus depriving Rajamohan to carry out his bus service, the reports said.
A BJP leader, Rajamohan owns four buses which were bought using his hard earned money working in the gulf. Only one bus is blocked from operating in Kottayam-Thiruvarppu sector which is a lucrative route.
As per the suggestion of the Labour office, wages were hiked considering the route and daily collection earned. The dispute is over paying incentive on the basis of collection.
When contacted sources in the Labour office Kottayam told the newsskerala.com that discussions were on to solve the issue.
Representatives held talks with labour officer over phone as the official was undergoing training in Thiruvananthapuram.
