They are planning an indefinite strike from December 27
Lorry owners in the State have appealed to the Chief Minister and the Transport Minister to call them for talks immediately to address their charter of demands and avert an indefinite truckers’ strike from December 27.
The strike call, given by the State Lorry Owners’ Federation, Tamil Nadu, has received the backing of the South Zone Motor Transporters’ Welfare Association (SIMTA), an apex organisation of truckers, transporters and passenger vehicle operators.
‘Last resort’ Addressing the media in Tiruchi on Monday, SIMTA general secretary G.R. Shanmugappa said the lorry owners had been pressing the State government to concede their eight-point charter of demands for the past six months, and had decided to go on strike as the last resort.
