Shajapur collector sparks row with ‘aukaat’ remark

IndiaTimes Wednesday, 3 January 2024
A truck driver in Shajapur district, MP, was snubbed by collector Kishore Kanyal at a meeting to resolve the strike crisis. The collector asked the driver about his worth, triggering a controversy. Kanyal clarified that he meant the drivers don't have the status to create trouble. The meeting ended successfully with participants agreeing not to interrupt transportation and to protest peacefully. The strike by truckers in MP was related to the proposed law on hit-and-run cases. The collector's comments came just as news of a breakthrough in talks between the government and striking truckers in Delhi emerged.
