New Delhi: <\/b><\/p>\n
A section of bike taxi drivers has sought Delhi LG V K Saxena’s intervention in helping them stave off a Delhi government ban which proscribed them from plying on city roads in absence of a policy.<\/p>\n
The Delhi government had earlier in the week banned app-based taxi services such as Rapido and Uber in view of absence of a policy for plying of bike taxis on city roads.<\/p>\n
In a memorandum they handed over to LG’s office, the drivers said the Delhi government was adamant on banning their services.<\/p>\n
“We will face difficulties in meeting household expenses, getting our children educated and getting our parents treated,” read the memorandum.<\/p>\n
The Supreme Court had on Monday stayed a Delhi High Court order that essentially allowed Rapido and Uber to operate in the national capital by asking the Delhi government not to take any coercive action against them till a new policy was formulated.<\/p>\n
A vacation bench of Justices Aniruddha Bose and Rajesh Bindal at Supreme Court granted liberty to the two aggregators to request urgent hearing of their pleas by the Delhi HC.<\/p>\n
Transport Commissioner Ashish Kundra said the government will write to aggregators and also appeal to them through the media to comply with the Supreme Court order or face action.<\/p>\n
The bench, which stayed the May 26 order of the Delhi HC, also recorded the Delhi government counsel’s submission that the final policy will be notified before July-end.<\/p>\n
