They said the discussion with the CPC chairman today over their strike and the former agreed to grant 40% of their revision in fares.
Following the increase in fuel prices, private fuel bowser owners demanded a 40% increase to the transporting cost.
The Bowser Association claimed that their annual charge revision will be submitted in due course and the deficit will also be added to that.
They began their strike on Saturday (April 30).
