GUWAHATI, Jan. 5, 2024 (TBINN)
Movement of all commercial vehicles in Assam is likely to come to a halt as a joint forum of all transporters’ unions called for a strike for 48 hours from Friday to protest against the new penal law on hit-and-run cases.
Multiple associations of public transport, including buses, cabs and autos, goods carriers and fuel tankers, have joined hands and announced their participation in the agitation.
The government only wants to blame drivers for any unfortunate incident even if they may not have committed the crime. Instead of improving road conditions, they are penalising the poor drivers, Ramen Das, the convenor of Assam Motor Worker Associations’ Joint Platform, said.
