The Assam government launched 'Baayu,' an app-based electric bike taxi service that is an innovative and forward-thinking sustainable mobility initiative of the state government-run Assam State Transport Corporation (ASTC).
The Supreme Court will hear on Wednesday Delhi Government's plea challenging the Delhi High Court interim's order staying the Delhi Transport Department's notification to stop plying bike taxi services through ride-sharing platforms in the national capital.
The plea was mentioned on Monday before the vacation bench of justices Aniruddha Bose and Rajesh Bindal by Delhi Government's advocates Manish Vashisht and Jyoti Mendiratta, who sought an urgent listing. The court said that it will hear the plea on Wednesday.
The state auto drivers' body said that its members have decided to hold a rally 'Vidhana Soudha Chalo' (Legislative House) against e-bike taxi services being launched in Bengaluru and said the service would eat out their business.
