Transporter union announces three-day strike in Delhi-NCR from May 21

The All India Motor Transport Congress (AIMTC) has announced a three-day strike in the Delhi-NCR region from May 21 to May 23 against the Delhi Government’s decision to hike the environment compensation cess on commercial vehicles.

The AIMTC, the apex body of truckers, private buses, taxi, and maxi cab operators, held a meeting on Tuesday (May 19, 2026) in Delhi where issues related to the cess hike were raised.

"More than 68 transport associations and unions across Delhi NCR have come together under the banner of AIMTC and have decided to suspend their transport operations for three days from May 21 to May 23 in Delhi-NCR against the unjust and unfair policies imposed by the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM), courts and the Delhi government on the transport sector," a statement said.
