Meghalaya to Review Taxi Policies Amidst Interstate Disputes

Meghalaya to Review Taxi Policies Amidst Interstate Disputes

The government of Meghalaya is looking at how other states handle tourist taxis.

This is happening because taxi drivers in Meghalaya and Assam are fighting over where they can take tourists.

Meghalaya taxi drivers want to stop taxis from other states from going to tourist spots, while Assam drivers want the same access.

The government will look at places like Sikkim, Karnataka, and Maharashtra to see how they manage their taxi rules.

Local taxi drivers will pause their protests while the government studies the policies.

The goal is to make things run smoothly for tourists and taxi drivers from all over.
