This raised concerns about potential fuel shortages in some areas. Truck drivers reportedly obstructed traffic on the Mumbai-Ahmedabad Highway in Thane district, resulting in minor injuries to a policeman and damage to a police vehicle. Additional protests occurred in Solapur, Kolhapur, Nagpur and Gondia. The state government has requested police assistance to ensure uninterrupted fuel supplies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Traffic Impacted Across India<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Rajasthan, traffic jams were reported on several highways due to the protests. Operation of some roadways buses was temporarily impacted before resuming following police intervention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Madhya Pradesh, drivers gathered for demonstrations in Bhopal and other cities, stopping buses and vehicles. Long lines were seen at some petrol stations amid fears of disrupted fuel delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Punjab, many commercial trucks and buses refrained from operating on Monday in protest. Truckers initiated a demonstration in Moga, obstructing traffic flow. The protesters are reportedly gaining support from public and private transportation operators in the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.businesstoday.in\/latest\/in-focus\/story\/truck-bus-drivers-protest-against-new-hit-and-run-law-enters-day-2-long-queues-seen-at-petrol-pumps-in-mumbai-nagpur-411551-2024-01-02\">Image Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Truck, bus and taxi operators continued their protests across multiple states for the second day against the new criminal code law related to punishments for hit-and-run accidents.
