💨 Abstract

The Maharashtra cabinet has approved a policy for electric-bike taxis in urban areas of the state. The taxis, with partitions and roof covers, will cater to single passengers traveling up to 15 km. The initiative aims to create over 20,000 jobs and promote a pollution-free Maharashtra. Children of autorickshaw and taxi drivers can apply for these taxis with government aid and loans.
