The government assured the members of the transport body that the new laws have not been implemented yet and will only be implemented after consultation with AIMTC.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe met and discussed the provisions under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, and all issues have been resolved. The new laws have not been implemented yet and will only be implemented after consultation with AIMTC,\u201d Malkit Singh Bal, the chairman of the AIMTC said.<\/p>\n<p>President of AIMTC, Amrit Lal Madan, expressed gratitude to the government for their willingness to engage in dialogue. \u201cYou are not just our drivers, you are our soldiers. We do not want you to face any inconvenience,\u201d said Madan<\/p>\n<p>He further disclosed that Home Minister Amit Shah had assured the suspension of the ten-year punishment and fine until the next meeting of AIMTC takes place, signaling a commitment to further negotiations and resolutions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAmit Shah has kept the 10 years of punishment and fine that was imposed, on hold. Until the next meeting of the All India Motor Transport Congress is held no laws will be imposed,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The protest was over the Section 106(2) of Bharatiya Nyaya Samhita which has provisions for strict penalty in hit-and-run cases. Under BNS, which replaced the colonial-era Indian Penal Code, a provision was included that provides for a jail of up to 10 years and\/or a fine of Rs 7 lakh for serious road accidents due to negligent driving and where drivers run away without informing the police.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/www.hamslive.com\/news\/2024\/01\/truck-drivers-association-ends-strike-after-government-assurance-on-new-hit-and-run-law\/\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground: #ffffff !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President of AIMTC, Amrit Lal Madan, expressed gratitude to the government for their willingness to engage in dialogue.
