Transporters' strike likely ...
Transporters' strike likely to up commodity prices
 INDIA , 5-January-2009  1:30:41 AM
Prices of essential commodities and vegetables are expected to rise following an indefinite nationwide transporters' strike by the All India Motor Transport Congress, its spokesperson said on Monday.

The strike call, given by 4,000 associations affiliated to the All India Motor Transport Congress (AIMTC), commenced from Monday midnight following which prices of essential commodities may shoot up if it continues for the next four to five days, AIMTC spokesperson N L Gupta said in Mumbai.

Transporters have demanded that the Government introduce a bailout package for the sector to address issues such as high price of diesel, tyres, and permits, besides other demands.

They have demanded reduction of diesel price by Rs 10 per litre since crude Oil prices in the international market have declined drastically.

The list also includes levying uniform four percentage point VAT on diesel, scrapping registration and return filing requirements in the new Carriers Act, reducing tyre prices by 30-35 per cent and rolling back national permit fees from Rs 5,000 to Rs 1,500.
