Kolasib truckers threaten stir over deplorable highway condition

Truckers in Mizoram’s Kolasib district are threatening to protest from October 20 if the state government fails to repair the Aizawl-Silchar highway by October 19. The road conditions have worsened due to heavy rains, causing trucks to overturn or get stranded. Drivers cite increased maintenance costs and safety risks as reasons for their potential strike.
