Srinagar, Nov 25: The ARTO Srinagar, Syed Farhana Asgar, held a meeting today with stakeholders to address concerns raised by various aggregator service providers.
During the meeting, the ARTO urged transporters to ensure strict compliance with the Central Motor Vehicles Rules (CMVR) and the Motor Vehicles Act (MVA) for the seamless functioning of the transportation sector.
The meeting highlighted challenges, particularly the detection of unregistered cab services operating illegally in Srinagar.
Despite explicit warnings from the RTO Kashmir that only registered service providers are permitted to operate in Srinagar, non-compliance remains an issue.
The ARTO reiterated the importance of strict adherence to regulations and directed all transporters to comply with the rules, emphasizing the pivotal role they play in establishing a robust and compliant future transport system for the region.
Furthermore, a show-cause notice has been issued to Aala Cabs aggregator service, accused of engaging private vehicles for cab services, creating discord among commercial cab drivers.
