Auto, Taxi Strike in Delhi on July 26, All You Need to Know
New Delhi, July 13: Brace for a difficult 72 hours as taxis and auto-rickshaws won’t ply on the road for three days from July 26. The taxi and auto unions in Delhi have decided to go on a strike as they are miffed with the policies of the state and Central governments. Bharatiya Majdoor Sangh’s Delhi unit held a meeting on Wednesday and took a decision to go on a strike. Drivers in rural areas will also participate in the strike.
A senior official of the Bharatiya Majdoor Sangh told Amar Ujala that the Central and State governments are hell-bent on ending employment for auto and taxi drivers. Fee for the inspection of CNG cylinders used to be Rs 900-Rs1000. Now it is Rs 2300. That’s why they are going on a strike.
