[QUOTE="vivek.krishnan, post: 2117176, member: 33237"] Circumventing laws - I am not sure if this means it's a bad thing. Stop buying from Amazon and Flipkart because they were bypassing the distributors and causing losses to the middlemen. Laws should be for the betterment, not for the worser. Rather than laws which restrict competition, implement a law that these drivers should be paid a daily wage like MNREGA or something - but it should not be so much that if they do nothing, they can comfortably sit at home. The situation with autos in Andheri is so bad, I am using Ola Auto whenever I get a chance, even though I am paying 50% ie 10 INR extra. Finally, look at it like bonus or incentives - it stays as long as the company is profitable only. In this case, now that they have to turn profits, they will remove these - it was but obvious. However, the source of these was not shown to the drivers - its like the subprime crisis, when the bubble bursts, you are screwed. So, to better this, we need education. Finally, Uber and Ola have created jobs, and this is good only. I regularly pool to Andheri when fares are 80 INR or less, and I know someone who does the same for Nariman Point for 150 INR on daily basis. EDIT - The last line got cut. The person who goes on a daily basis, would be going by train and has a couple of friends. These have started going by cab which earlier they would not have been doing, since they go at different times. [/QUOTE]
