The driver, Sheikh Khaja Miyan, working in the Sathupally bus depot in Khammam district, died of a heart attack.
He was reportedly worried about his future owing to the continuing strike.
This is the third incident of a striking RTC employee dying since the strike began a fortnight ago. On October 13, a driver Srinivas Reddy immolated himself, and another conductor hanged himself.
The family members of the Khaja Miyan alleged that he died due to the agony and the stress caused by the government not resolving the issue.
