Sanvordem Truck Owners Demand Relief Ahead of Mining Transport Restart

A meeting of the Sanvordem Truck Owners Association was held in Sanvordem, Goa, to discuss the resumption of iron ore transportation by Fomento Resources from Kudegali to Sanvordem Junction.

During the meeting, truck owners expressed their readiness to begin transport operations at the earliest. Association members highlighted that many trucks have been idle for nearly 15 years due to the prolonged halt in mining activities.

Association President Valab Dalvi appealed to the Goa government to waive pending fitness renewal charges for trucks. He stated that with only one mine currently operational, it is difficult for truck owners to clear accumulated dues.

Dalvi urged Chief Minister Pramod Sawant to consider a one-time waiver of overdue charges, emphasizing that such relief would help revive the transport sector and support the livelihoods of local truck operators.
