AIBAK (Pajhwok): Hundreds of truckers on Tuesday blocked the Kabul-Mazar highway in northern Samangan province to protest a hike in the urban service tax.
The protestors have kept closed the road at several parts since morning, saying the commissioners appointed by the municipality received 300 to 500 afghanis from each trucker every month.
But now the money is charged on a daily basis, according to the protestors, numbering around 300.
