Odd-even returns, Auto and Taxi unions call for strike on Monday

A section of auto and taxi unions have called for a one-day strike on Monday to protest against the app-based cab services.
This comes at a time when the second phase of odd-even scheme is rolling out.

Rajendra Soni, who is general secretary of both 'Delhi Autorickshaw Sangh' and 'Delhi Pradesh Taxi Unions,' said that auto and black-yellow taxis will not ply on the capital's roads on Monday.

Soni claims the AAP government has so far not issued 10,000 new permits for auto-rickshaws. There are around 13,000 black-yellow taxis and around 81,000 plying on Delhi’s streets.

Earlier this week, a section of auto and taxi unions had taken out a protest march against app-based taxi services.
