Hello
The Navy has signed an MoU with the cab aggregator service for personal travel.
Ola CEO, through a tweet, called the report absolute rubbish. He also said the company was very profitable and growing well, and that a merger will never be in question.
Founded in 2009, Uber sought to skirt taxi regulations and offer inexpensive transportation via a ride-sharing app.
Lack of proper grievance redressal mechanism, deficiency in service, unreasonable levy of cancellation charges were among most reported issues.
The move could help Uber tap into the more than 500 million user base of Meta Platforms-owned WhatsApp in India.
The city has seen a spike in violence with last year's murder and serious assault numbers being the worst since 2012 and the reported rapes the most in a year since 2013.
Labour Minister V Sivankutty said that a pilot project will be introduced in Thiruvananthapuram and before that, a trial run will be conducted.
Before entering the Indian cities, a corporate video of Uber in various Indian languages was posted on social media platforms two months ago.
The feature gives riders the chance to view detailed information like the fastest and cheapest routes, real-time schedules, arrival and departure times, estimated price and walking directions to nearby transit stops to make the smartest possible journey choices.
The development comes days after rival Ola had announced laying off 1,400 people from its rides, financial services and food business.
