Re: [prpoint] UBER Conttroversy

 

Rapes happen even in police stations. The governments has gone overboard in banning the taxi operator. The government has not come out with the logic for banning the operator. A minister said the operator provided the victim with a vehicle that has national permit for local journey. So what is wrong with this?

Whipping UBER is great for channel rating.

UBER Controversy: Delhi govt bans UBER in Delhi over the case of a criminal taxi driver who raped a lady passenger. This is good fodder for media.

But no one is asking questions like-Why Ban UBER only in Delhi?
Any number of phony radio taxi services are operating, the background of their taxi drivers are not verified by the operators. Should not the Govt ban them??

Is it not the job of Road Transport authorities to check the background of drivers before issuing driving licences,esp commercial vehicle licences?
IN UBER Delhi case the police have given a certificate of good conduct to the errant driver. Should not the Gov ttake the relevant police to task?

The entire controversy highlihgts the need to pass the Road trasnport Safety bill pending before parliament.Media has missed this important point.

Even if there is background check of drivers by a taxi operator,in this case UBER,does this guarantee that   a criminal act like rape,murder etc wouod not be committed by a driver?
