Led by the Union’s District President Balakrishnan, the auto drivers urged the Centre to immediately roll back the hike. They also demanded that badges be given to the auto drivers without any condition attached to it. They also demanded that the autos seized by the officials of Regional Transport Office (RTO) be immediately returned.
