Taxi aggregators in Bengaluru continue auto services overlooking Transport Department order

Taxi aggregators in Bengaluru have yet again overlooked the order of the Transport Department by continuing auto services via their mobile apps.

Following a meeting with representatives on Tuesday, the department had directed Ola, Uber, and Rapido not to run auto services from Wednesday (October 12) citing that their services are illegal. However, aggregators snubbed the department by continuing the services on Wednesday morning.

Auto services were made available for the passengers by charging more than the fares fixed by the authorities. While some commuters pointed out the availability of autos, others said the waiting time was too long.
