After the amendment in the indian Judicial Code 2023, the rules have now become strict in hit and run cases. Under the new rule, in case of hit and run, a fine of up to Rs 7 lakh and imprisonment of up to 10 years has been made on the driver. All india Transport congress has opposed this provision in Indore. In a press conference in Indore, organization official Amritlal madan said, "After this rule, heavy vehicle drivers are leaving their jobs." President of All india Motor Transport congress, Amritlal madan said that in the indian Judicial Code 2023, there is a provision of 10 years' imprisonment for the drivers guilty of accidents, which is putting our transport industry in danger. He said that "India's road the transport fraternity does not agree with the stringent provisions under the proposed law on hit-and-run cases under the indian Civil Code 2023."

What is the organization's concern on the hit and run law?

Expressing his concerns regarding the new provision, Amrit madan said, "There is definitely a need to take strict steps in hit and run cases and the government's intention behind it is good, but there are many flaws in the proposed law. But there is a need to think again." Referring to the Motor Transport Association, he said that "Today, the biggest contributor to the country's economy is the transport sector and truck drivers, so the entire organization is worried about the possible negative effects of this law."

Amritlal madan said that "The proposed law has been introduced without any consultation and consent of the stakeholders. It is being implemented without knowing the ground reality." He said that "Transport industry and drivers are important wheels of the indian economy. india is currently facing the shortage of drivers, but the government is not paying any attention to it. In such a situation, after the provision of 10 years of punishment, now Truck drivers have been forced to leave their jobs."
