Maharashtra Government employees’ strike called off after meeting with CM Fadnavis

The Maharashtra Government employees’ strike, which began on April 21, has been revoked. Vishwas Katkar, convener of the Employees’ Coordination Committee, had maintained that a concrete decision on the 18 demands would not be possible unless Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis held an official meeting.

The Statewide indefinite strike by government employees, semi-government staff, and teaching and non-teaching personnel was called off on Thursday evening (April 23, 2026). The decision followed a meeting with Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, during which the administration agreed to address key demands.
