The ASHA workers, under the banner of Kerala ASHA Health Workers’ Association (KAHWA), resorted to the hunger strike after two rounds of talks with the state government failed.
The talks between the health minister and the agitating ASHA workers failed as the government was not ready to accept any of the demand put forth by the ASHA workers.
