Goods transporters’ strike continues on fifth day

The goods transporters announced to continue their strike until a written agreement with the government, as their strike entered its fifth day, it was reported on Wednesday.

According to details, despite several rounds of negotiations being held, the goods transporters announced to continue their strike.

The goods transporters launched the wheel-jam strike last week to protest against what they call unfair taxation, rising operational costs and lack of implementation of transport policies.

The strike has disrupted the supply of essential goods in several cities, raising concerns about shortages and price hikes.

Federal Minister Abdul Aleem Khan assured the delegation that the government is serious about resolving the matter and will continue dialogue with the transporters. However, no timeline was given for the next round of talks.

The goods transporters said they are ready to sit for more negotiations but will only end the protest once they see concrete steps and approval of their demands on the ground.
