The Telangana Lorry Owners Association (TLOA) on Saturday threatened to go on strike if the State government does not heed their demands. These demands include resolution of the counter signature permit and an increase in the Civil Supplies Department’s rates to transport paddy. TLOA office bearers said that the Civil Supplies Department finalised Indira Kranthi Patham paddy contracts when the diesel price was ₹72 per litre.
However, with the steep rise in diesel prices, the current rate of transporting paddy, ₹193 per tonne for a distance less than 10 km, is not feasible by any stretch.
They said these rates should be increased.
