Maharashtra cancels app-based bike taxi permits for non-compliance

Maharashtra has cancelled temporary permits for app-based bike taxis, including Uber, Ola, and Rapido, due to non-compliance. The government cited failure to submit mandatory documents and use of petrol bikes instead of electric ones as reasons for the cancellation. This action follows inspections revealing violations of e-bike regulations and hiring practices, with a statewide crackdown now underway.
