Union Budget 2021: Taxi and car owners' association seek relief

Tanveer Pasha,  President, Ola, TaxiForSure and Uber Drivers, and Owners Association, says that he wants the government to revise diesel rates and fix it between Rs 50 to Rs 60 to ensure maximum benefit for drivers.

Several families belonging to this particular section of the society were badly hit during the lockdown, especially those who had taken loans. Given that the government's moratorium also did not provide any relief, this section is now expecting that loans and interest during the lockdown period be waived off.

This apart, the association also hopes the government to give fresh loans with lower interest rates to recover from the financial loss suffered.
