ISSUES

that Chaalak Shakti is
currently working on

Delhi has 402 auto stands and 517 taxi stands which are meant only for black and yellow taxis against a combined need of 21,000 auto taxi stands. 511 auto stands notified in 2019 were never erected. Drivers are challaned left, right and centre. This must change.

Fare

Auto and taxi fare is controlled by the state governments but they make a shoddy job of it. Drivers should be liberated from fare restrictions and they should be permitted to set their own prices through their unions, cooperatives and corporates.

E-Auto

We welcome the introduction of e-autos but the implementation by the government has been very poor. The result is that only 211 e-autos were regd. against the availability of 4261 e-autos by 30.04.2022, the last date. The scheme has essentially failed.

Feedback

I have spoken to many passengers and drivers alike on various issues and the regulatory regime they operate in. We are astounded
to learn of the many challenges, difficulties and issues confronted by a driver on road. The system is itself exploitative. Your website
helps me see drivers in a new light. They have my vote if they aspire to a new improved and forward-looking life.

Change begins with our citizens supporting right issues and campaigns

A society progresses when people in a privilege pull up their brethren who are at a disadvantage, and when they have no personal stake in the rise of a people facing misfortune.Large scale reforms in society have come from galvanizing of masses around a core very powerful idea. “Rise of the Underdog” is one such idea that can impact half of the country’s population.
