NEW DELHI: Despite Centre’s clear instructions to make the movement of cargo vehicles seamless across the country, truckers’ associations have been raising several issues that are still coming in their way.They claimed the availability of drivers has reduced to 15 for 100 trucks as compared to 58-60 drivers per 100 trucks before Corona breakout.“Many are finding reasons to return home and they are scared. While the demand for movement of essential commodities is increasing frantically, supply is not even close to matching it. Not more than 10% of trucks are running and drivers are finding ways to return home,” said an office bearer of All India Transporters Welfare Association (AITWA). He claimed that warehouses and factories where trucks need to be unloadws trucks were still not open.Both AITWA and All India Motor Transport Congress, a pan-India truckers association, said instructions of MHA to allow trucks to operate have not gone down yet in many places.The Centre has issued specific instructions saying that all goods vehicles irrespective of what they are carrying should be allowed to move on. AIMTC alleged that high-handedness by the personnel manning the checkposts and nakas were causing harassment. There were also sporadic cases extortion and beating of drivers, it claimed.AIMTC also demanded that the government should consider bringing drivers under Rs 50 lakh insurance cover as it has been done for doctors and paramedics, it said.
