Karnataka Bike Taxi Services Resume: What You Need to Know
Ride-hailing services Rapido and Uber have resumed bike taxi operations in Karnataka after a two-month ban, following a Karnataka High Court ruling questioning the blanket ban. The court stressed the need for regulation rather than prohibition, highlighting the importance of bike taxis in urban mobility. This move comes amid increased demand for transport options, as many commuters had shifted to personal vehicles and faced rising auto fares during the ban. The Bike Taxi Welfare Association welcomes this development, urging collaboration with the government to establish a robust regulatory framework for safer and sustainable operations.
