Staff Reporter
NAMAKKAL: The State Lorry Owners Federation has decided to support the indefinite strike called by the Karnataka State Lorry Owners Federation from the midnight of June 30 to protest against the Karnataka Government’s order to install speed governors in lorries.
According to a press release from federation president P. Sengodan, the Karnataka Government had directed that speed governors should be fixed in all lorries, including the vehicles coming from other States. The order would come into effect from July 1.
The federation release said that the move would affect a large number of lorry owners in Tamil Nadu, who operate their vehicles through Karnataka.
The lorry operators in Karnataka announced the strike urging the government to withdraw the order.
