App-Cab Strike in Kolkata Causes Major Travel Disruptions, Inflated Fares
A 12-hour app-cab strike in Kolkata caused major travel disruptions and inflated fares on Monday. The strike was called by the Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU). The impact was most severe at Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose International Airport and the Howrah and Sealdah railway stations, where passengers struggled to find transport. Passengers faced immense difficulty reaching their destinations, with many being forced to walk for miles. The strike was called to protest against the alleged exploitation of app-cab drivers by ride-hailing companies.
