Transport strike in Delhi against amended MV Act today; schools to remain closed

Commuters in Delhi-NCR are likely to face hardships as transport bodies have given a one-day token strike call on Thursday. The strike is against the various provisions of the amended Motor Vehicle (MV) Act, including a steep hike in penalties for various traffic-related offences. On Wednesday, the United Front of Transport Associations (UFTA) office-bearers had alleged both the Centre and the Delhi government is forcing them to go for the strike.
