In wake of huge loss incurred by industry and on looking widespread shortage of essential items on account of the indefinite strike called by the truckers, PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry requests the Government to convene urgent meeting with the Truckers' Congress to seek an end to the strike at the earliest and appeals to the truckers association to resort to peaceful sorting of concerns and save the industry from further losses and difficulties for the common man.

PHD Chamber also appeals to the truckers and transporters associations to advise their constituents and members to maintain calm and peace and restraint from hooliganism, till a solution is reached between them and the government.
