Negotiations between the government and the All Pakistan Goods Transport have led to the postponement of a nationwide strike, with the action now set to resume on October 15. Punjab Transport Minister Bilal Akbar Khan assured transporters that their legitimate demands would be addressed, directing officials to enforce the 35-ton weight limit for 10-wheeler vehicles.
The strike was called off following talks that included Nisar Hussain Jafri, Bakhtawar Khan, Pir Mushtaq, and others. Both Bilal Akbar Khan and Malik Shehzad Awan issued a joint video statement. The minister pledged to release goods vehicles that had been stopped due to the protest and to compensate owners for the losses incurred.
Malik Shehzad Awan stressed that negotiations and coordination with the Punjab government would continue. The strike, which had caused significant disruption, now appears to be on hold until further notice.
