Delhi Taxi Strike

The auto and taxi associations in Delhi-NCR are on a two-day strike starting August 22.

Drivers of ride-hailing apps such as Uber and Ola have postponed their strike for 15 days after the Delhi government's assurance that their demands for subsidy on CNG and revision of fare would be looked into.

Unions representing autorickshaws and taxis called off their strike against fuel price hike on Tuesday, however, they have warned that if the demands of auto/taxi drivers are not met within the next 25 days, they will cut Delhi's food supply chain.

The strike called by drivers attached to ride-hailing apps such as Uber and Ola demanding subsidy on CNG prices and revision of fare rates entered its second day today.

To protest against the soaring fuel prices, members of auto, taxi and cab drivers' associations in Delhi have decided to go on a strike from Monday for two days.

General secretary of the Delhi Auto Rickshaw Sangh, Rajendra Soni, said the "unprecedented" hike in rates of CNG has taken a toll on auto and cab drivers.

With a fresh hike of Rs 2.5 in CNG prices, the members of auto, taxi and cab drivers' associations on Thursday warned authorities that they will go on a strike from April 18 to press for their demand of subsidy on gas prices.

Issuing a clarification that autorickshaws and taxis will not go on a strike in Delhi in support of protesting farmers, Delhi Autorickshaw Union and Delhi Pradesh Taxi Union on Tuesday said the drivers can not afford to protest as there is already decline in work opportunity due to COVID-19 pandemic.

Several schools in Delhi, Gurgaon and Noida are closed today and office-goers faced difficulties in getting public transport. 41 associations and unions of goods and passenger segments incl...

Protests by various taxi unions, contractual transport employees and the closing of petrol pumps, all against the Delhi government's refusal to cut tax on fuel added to the troubles of commuters on Monday.

Commuters in the national capital may face problems as auto-rickshaw and taxi unions have decided to go on a strike tomorrow against the Delhi government's policies on cab aggregators.

Drivers of cab aggregators Uber and Ola have threatened to go on an indefinite strike from the midnight of March 18.

Uber's food delivery service UberEATS is up and running in Gurugram, two months after it launched in Mumbai. However, the company won't say how it plans to avoid the pitfalls it faced in the taxi space.

Although cabs were easily available on several routes, app-based cab aggregators resorted to surge-pricing on some routes.
