Transporters up in arms over fascist Modi’s brutal tactics 

Srinagar, December 25, 2021 (PPI-OT):In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, transporters including owners of private vehicles and taxi drivers staged protests against the illegal seizure of their vehicles by Indian traffic police calling it a deliberate attempt by the Modi-led fascist Indian government to cripple the Kashmiri transporters economically.

The transporters held one such protest at Press Enclave in Srinagar and raised slogans in support of their demands. The protesting drivers said that hundreds of vehicles transporting passengers from various parts of north Kashmir into Srinagar city are seized unnecessarily by the Traffic Police Department.

“The police seize vehicles at different places like Shaltang, Tangpora, and JVC without any reason,” they complained.

The transporters said that the vehicles were seized illegally because no paperwork had been completed. “They don’t offer us any seizure documents or challans. When we go to the court to get our vehicle released, they ask for seizure documents”, they added.

The transporters said that their vehicles had been taken despite the fact that they had permission to drive on the roads, and that they were unnecessarily harassed. “If they want to change our routes why don’t they announce it,” the drivers asked.
