Fare hike timing wrong, say auto, taxi drivers

Autorickshaw and taxi drivers have welcomed the fare hike implemented from this month, but complained that it was ‘wrongly timed’. On Tuesday, many drivers resolved that they will not charge the revised fares unless their meters are recalibrated, and this could take two to three months for most vehicles. As a result, commuters stand to gain by paying 16% less fare for autos and 13% less in taxis—as per the old fares.
