For permits, say no to strikes: Bengal tells transporters
23 Nov 2012 5:33 AM IST
The WB govt has told transport operators in the state that to get permits or renew licences, they would have to submit an undertaking that they would not go on strike. But the decision has drawn flak from the owners of buses and taxis.
‘Transport operators will have to submit this undertaking to get permits for running vehicles. Without it, they will not be given permits,’ Transport Minister Madan Mitra added that all regional transport officers have been asked to act accordingly.
‘The operators often pull out their vehicles and it causes much inconvenience to commuters. We will not tolerate it,’ Mitra said.
