" Dengue cases crossed 1,500 in Delhi on Wednesday where the worried civic authorities issued an ultimatum to the striking mosquito breeding checkers to return to work by Thursday evening or face sacking.
"If the domestic breeding checkers do not return to work by 5 pm tomorrow, we will sack them and appoint new ones in their place," MCD Public Health Committee Chairman V K Monga said.
Officials, however, admit that that appointing new people may also lead to a temporary manpower crunch as the process may take at least four to five days. The strike by at least half of MCD's breeding checkers demanding regularisation of their contract jobs entered the fourth day on Wednesday.
The striking workers staged a dharna and raised slogans near the MCD headquarters at Town Hall on Wednesday.
Anti-Malaria Karamchari Sangh president Ashok Chaudhary said the DBCs will continue their agitation. Officials said the workers want the MCD to assure in writing about their regularisation."
