J&K transporters to observe one day token strike on Dec 15 over “neglect” by government

STC NEWS DESK
SRINAGAR, DECEMBER 09 (STC): Jammu and Kashmir Transport Welfare Association has announced a one-day token strike on December 15 over their “long-pending” demands.
The association General Secretary, in a press conference today said transporters from both Jammu and Kashmir divisions have unanimously decided to observe the strike as a mark of protest.
He said the transport sector is “on the verge of collapse” due to the government’s “failure to address key issues,” including the unregulated operation of e-buses, steep hikes in fitness and green taxes and arbitrary e-challans.
“The association will give the government a seven-day ultimatum after the strike, warning of a “major decision” if their demands remain unfulfilled,” he said.
