This isn’t the first case we are facing such incident file against the App-based taxi company. This year in the may a Belgian national was abused by an OLA driver in Delhi. We don’t even forget the incident where an Uber driver, Shiv Kumar Yadav, raped a woman in Delhi in December 2014.

In this scenario, OLA is launching OLA rooms a whole night stay in the taxi. this again triggered the security of women.

The state governments had requested for complete police verification of every driver on the Ola and Uber platforms. One of the main reasons for this was to ensure women’s safety while no such information has given about the response time.
