Mumbai Commuters Face Chaos: Rickshaw, Cab Drivers Announce One-Day Strike

  • Mumbai commuters will face major inconvenience tomorrow as rickshaw and cab drivers will observe a one-day statewide strike.
  • The strike, organized by the Bharatiya Gig Kamgar Manch, is a national-level protest against illegal bike-taxi services and arbitrary fare policies of Ola, Uber, and Rapido.
  • Drivers allege that Ola, Uber, and Rapido are ignoring government regulations, and no action is being taken against them.
  • Key issues include illegal bike-taxi services leading to accidents and lack of insurance, financial exploitation through panic buttons, and reduced income due to open rickshaw permit policy.
  • The strike aims to draw the government's attention to these demands and will last for one day on Saturday (the 7th).
