The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) workers staged a protest in front of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's residence here on Wednesday over non-payment of salaries.

Over 1.5 lakh employees of the three MCDs have decided to go on three-day strike from today. They have decided to go on an indefinite strike if their demands are not fulfilled.

The cash-strapped North and East Delhi civic bodies have been unable to pay salaries to the workers for three to four months now.

Sanitation workers, doctors, teachers, engineers and office staff of the corporations are going on a strike from today and hold a protest at the Jantar Mantar - like they did on January 14.
