Kejriwal raises e-rickshaw operators' problems with LG


New Delhi, June 16 (IANS): Former Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal Monday met Lt.Governor Najeeb Jung and requested him to hear the problems faced by the e-rickshaw operators in the national capital.

Kejriwal, also the Aam Aadmi Party chief, urged Jung that the state authorities should immediately stop issuing traffic tickets, impounding e-rickshaws or harassing e-rickshaw operators.

Accompanied by three party legislators, Kejriwal met Jung at Raj Niwas and said that a policy on e-rickshaws should be formulated. He also said these rickshaws are being allowed to ply in Ghaziabad under their own policy and each rickshaw is given a municipal registration number but not in Delhi.

Kejriwal wrote to union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari and requested him not to slap fines on e-rickshaw drivers.

    Allowing e- Ricks is sure recipe for disaster, under-utilization of scarce resources like roads, utilities electricity, and human capital, unproductive at the least and chemical pollution of lead-acid battery. Sorry, Gadkariji. You have done what opposition leader Arvind Kejriwal was wanting all these days that is to fall in the trap laid.
    Such decisions of monumental impact should not be left to the discretion of the business-friendly mindset of individual ministers. Needs serious re-think. Modiji please intervene and set the things in order. If it is considered as populism then again remember AAP's past record and present state.
