Jamshedpur, Mar 25: Commercial vehicle owners under the banner Jamshedpur Local Trailer Owner Union today staged a blockade of the Burmamines Parking Gate demanding increase in rate by Tata Steel for use of commercial vehicles due to steep increase in prices of fuel.
The owners claim that earlier whenever there has been rise in prices of fuel the management of Tata Steel had increased the rate for commercial owners and transporters but the local commercial vehicle owners are not given this benefit which makes them incur financial loss.
It is the middlemen who act as transporters and take away the legitimate rights of the commercial vehicle owners and this has forced them to undertake this agitation.
