A situation of halted petrol and diesel supply is set to begin in Rajasthan from June 1, 2024. Truck owners and drivers across the state have called for a strike this coming Saturday in protest against the central government’s new regulations for truck owners. The transporters argue that the new rules will harm their business and push them into a financial crisis.
The Rajasthan Truck Owners Association and the Rajasthan Transport Workers’ Union have joined forces for the strike. They have warned that if their demands are not met, they will escalate the agitation. The strike could lead to long queues at petrol pumps across the state, making it difficult for the public to access fuel.
The trucking industry in Rajasthan represents a large segment of the workforce, and the strike could have ripple effects on the state’s economy. While the state government has not yet issued an official response, local authorities have advised people to stock up on fuel in advance.
