Taxi war may put flyers in a spot

Mumbai: Black-and-yellow taxi unions are opposing the prepaid service, to be tentatively launched on December 1, by tourist cab companies at the domestic airport. This may cause inconvenience to flyers from Thursday, authorities anticipate.
Priyadarshini and Forshe cabs, both tourist taxi firms, are set to launch their prepaid service and this is being strongly opposed by the black-and-yellow taxi unions, which are threatening a "law and order" situation. Susiieben Shah, who runs the Priyadarshini taxi service for women, said it was a "path-breaking initiative" wherein tourist taxis would, for the first time, function like prepaid cabs.
