Ola, Uber, and Rapido drivers in Hyderabad to boycott airport trips over unfair fare structures
The Telangana Gig and Platform Workers' Union (TGPWU) in Hyderabad has launched a campaign to boycott airport trips facilitated by Ola, Uber, and Rapido. This is in response to the low fares imposed by these companies, which the union claims are severely impacting drivers' livelihoods. The TGPWU has urged the government to implement a standard fare structure to ensure fair pay and sustainable livelihoods for gig and platform workers. The union is also urging passengers to support the boycott until fares are adjusted to fair levels. They are raising awareness about the challenges faced by gig and platform workers and demanding government intervention to regulate aggregator pricing.10:01 AM Mar 10, 2025 IST
