Truckers Say Woes Not Adequately Addressed By GST Rollout | Read

The government claims the Goods and Services Tax (GST) will largely help truckers as it would remove bottlenecks along highways and reduce the time taken to travel across the length and breadth of the country. One month since the rollout of GST, NDTV undertook a journey on a truck from Mumbai to Delhi. While it took us almost the same time as earlier, truckers say there has been an improvement when it comes to the check posts, but there is much more that needs to be done. NDTV travelled the distance of over 1400 km on a truck to conduct a reality check.
