Almost 40, 000 trade associations, representing eight crore traders of the nation , has extended support to the Bharat bandh by Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT) on February 26, for a review of the provisions of the goods and services tax (GST) process . The All India Transporters Welfare Association (AITWA), an apex body of the organised road transportation companies, has decided to support CAIT in the Bharat bandh for abolition of the new E-Way Bill or scrapping of some rules. It has also urged the government to abolish E-Way Bill and track vehicles by using Fast Tag connectivity to E-Invoice and to scrap the penalty on transporters for any time-based compliance for transit and to have diesel prices uniform throughout the nation.

On giving support to the bandh, AITWA National President Mahendra Arya said, “All state level-transport associations have assured their support to AITWA in this one-day non-operation of transport in protest of the fuel price hike and scrapping of new E-way bill laws introduced by Government of India.”
