HYDERABAD: The national indefinite strike declared by way of drivers working with app-based cab aggregators Ola and Uber is not likely to have a lot affect on commuters in Hyderabad as many city-based cab house owners’ and drivers’ associations have decided now not to participate in it. Cab drivers in the city are anticipated to carry out symbolic protests by way of wearing black badges whilst getting to their tasks.
Drivers in Bengaluru, Pune, Chennai, New Delhi and Mumbai have threatened to move on indefinite strike from Sunday in team spirit with the national strike declared by way of the Nav Nirman Vahatuk Sena. Drivers in Hyderabad stated their determination to avoid the strike was to make sure there is not any loss of profits.
“The ultimate time such a protest was carried out in Hyderabad, the drivers’ profits have been considerably affected. This is why this time now we have decided to engage in an indefinite symbolic protest as a substitute. While plying across the city, cab drivers will wear black badges to show their team spirit with the strike. Through this, we goal to make our customers conscious about the problems faced by way of cab drivers because of mismanagement,” stated Shaik Salauddin, state president of the Telangana Four-Wheelers Drivers’ Association.
Drivers working with cab aggregators point out how their profits have dipped when compared to a couple of years ago because of the lack of right kind incentives. High EMI instalments have been cited as the primary reason why drivers are not able to make ends meet.
“Although we went on an identical moves in Hyderabad twice in 2017, no solution was found. We are now difficult that the state govt intervene in the subject and urge the managements of Ola and Uber to hear drivers’ issues,” stated Salauddin.
