Amritsar, December 29
The SAD-BSP has come up with a “vision for the transport sector” that would be part of its manifesto for the 2022 polls.
Sharing the alliance’s vision, SAD president Sukhbir Singh Badal said a transport welfare board would be constituted to regulate transport, remove hiccups and formulate welfare schemes and decide taxes.
A corpus of Rs 25 crore will be allocated to run the affairs. “Our aim is to provide a forum to transporters where they can raise their concerns and have them addressed in a transparent and efficient manner.
The e-tenders for the carriage of goods will exclusively be for transport operators who are actively involved in it.
“The allotment of tenders online will prevent political interference and ensure transparency,” he said, promising to revive defunct ‘transport unions’. — TNS
