STRIKES * India - Port Nehru Truckers Strike
Drivers protest congestion at terminal operated by DP World
Port Nehru,Maharashtra,India -The Journal of Commerce Online -Sep 28, 2010: -- A sudden strike by container truck drivers Tuesday morning threatened serious delays to cargo moving through Nhava Sheva International Container Terminal in India’s Port of Jawaharlal Nehru, the country’s largest maritime container gateway... The Nhava Sheva Container Operators’ Welfare Association is protesting persistent delays at the terminal operated by DP World... The association said the Dubai-based company offered “volume-based discount schemes” to major ocean carriers in a bid to lure business away from the other two terminals in the port, creating a tight capacity situation with more ship calls... A shipping line agent at Nhava Sheva said no settlement was reached late Tuesday, and terminal management agreed to hold another round of talks with striking drivers Wednesday morning...
