STRIKE * India - Truckers on strike from 6 Jan
Bhubaneswar,India -The Statesman News Service (Kolkata,India) -Jan. 3, 2008: -- Talks between truckers and the state government failed today with the truck owners federation declaring that it will go on strike from 6 January as the government had not given any firm commitment with regards to fulfilment of their demands... The All Orissa Truck Owners Federation, general secretary Rabi Satpathy said trucks will go off road from 6th January... The truckers have been demanding revision of freight rates, end to mindless and forceful imposition of certain penalties and taxes and relaxation on the load factor... (Video from YouTube, by sanviTGN -June 21, 2007: "Crazy Road Pune-Satara" - In Maharashtra (India), I could experience the indian crazy driving on those bumpy roads. Vehicles overlaying everywhere, even at curves, without visibility. Heavy trucks overlaying passenger cars... Closer to death I've ever been!)
