North Goa taxi drivers along with Calangute MLA Michael Lobo met a delegation of local taxi drivers to meet the Superintendent of Police, North Goa, regarding the ongoing issues between local taxi services and Goa Miles drivers.
Lobo said they brought to SPs attention that Goa Miles taxi drivers are operating at various hotels and resorts in Calangute, Candolim, Arpora-Nagoa, and the North Goa coastal belt, areas where local taxi businesses operate on a queue system.
“This practice is depriving local taxi owners and drivers of their rightful business,” he said.
He further stated when local drivers request that Goa Miles drivers respect the queue system, the latter often call the police and file false assault complaints against us. This has created unnecessary tension and conflict.
“We respectfully requested the SP’s intervention to resolve this issue and ensure a fair and harmonious working environment for all parties involved. We await a timely and positive resolution to this matter,” he stated.
