Kochi: The standoff between conventional taxi service providers and online taxi operators does not appear to be ending as conventional taxi drivers have complained of their online service counterparts poaching on their territory.
Eldho Yohannan, board member of Taxi Cooperative Operators’ Society, Cochin International Airport, said the online taxis were poaching on their territory.
Earlier, there was an understanding that the online taxi providers would only drop air passengers and not pick them up from the airport.
However, they had now started picking up passengers from Nedumbassery too, he said.
However, the local drivers were not physically intervening or causing any trouble to the online taxi drivers.
