Will call for bandh in Bengaluru: Private transport operators

Private transport operators in Bengaluru, represented by the Federation of Private Transport Organisations, have staged a protest against taxi aggregators and related issues. They have submitted a complaint to the Transport Commissioner demanding restrictions on taxi apps on platforms like the Play Store, the implementation of a 'One City, One Fare' system, and legal action against unlicensed companies. The federation's leader, Nataraj Sharma, gave the government a 15-day deadline to address these concerns. Should their demands remain unmet, the group plans to organize a citywide bandh (shutdown), beginning with private transport operators flying black flags on their vehicles.
