Rana demanded setting up of Group of Ministers (GoMs) by the State Government for holding talks with all the organizations holding protests to air their grievances, which included payment of their wages, regularization etc.
Rana called upon the Parliamentary Affairs Minister Abdul Rehman Veeri to give reply to the issues raised by him in the House.
Veeri responded to the issue later describing the problems raised by Rana as sensitive issues and assured him that the Government would talk to representatives of the protesters and try to address their issues.
