The Federation of Karnataka State Lorry Owners and Agents Association has issued a warning to the government that they will restart their sand and construction material strike.

In a release issued on Monday, the president of the Federation G R Shanmugappa said the 15 day old strike that ended recently could restart as the Mines and Geology Department is yet to issue permits for sand transport as promised.

“The strike could restart with an additional demand for compensating accumulated loses. The government shall be held responsible under breach of faith,” Mr Shanmugappa warned.
