Mohandas Pai Slams Bengaluru Auto Drivers: 'How Many Go By The Meter?'

• Former Infosys CFO Mohandas Pai criticized Bengaluru auto drivers for not following meter fares and overcharging passengers.
• Pai's remarks followed an auto drivers' association's letter to PM Modi demanding a ban on bike taxi services.
• He questioned why the public should support auto drivers who allegedly 'extort money' and demand inflated fares.
• The debate resurfaces as bike taxis return to Bengaluru after the Karnataka High Court lifted the ban in January.
• Auto unions oppose bike taxis, citing threats to livelihoods, while past protests have led to confrontations and attacks on riders.
