India's truck drivers call off protest after govt assurances on new hit-and-run law

Truckers in India who were on a nationwide transport strike, in protest against a new law that would enforce stringent punishment for hit-and-run cases, are back at work.

After talks with members of the All India Motor Transport Congress, the government of India assured the committee that the new law has not been implemented yet and will only be implemented after consultation with all stakeholders.
