New Tool Helps Bengaluru Commuters Check Auto Fare Overcharges

Some engineers made a tool called Meter Haaki to help you check if auto-rickshaw apps are overcharging you.

It lets you see what the official fare should be, based on how far you travel, and compare it to the price on the app.

This is because many people in Bengaluru feel that app-based auto services charge too much.

The new tool calculates fares based on official rates, like a minimum fee for the first few kilometers and a per-kilometer charge after that.

It aims to make sure you are not paying more than you should for your rides.
