Union Home and Cooperation Minister Amit Shah launched Bharat Taxi in Gujarat, marking the cooperative ride-hailing platform's expansion into the state. The initiative plans to reach 125 cities and 30 major urban centres across India by March 2027 under a cooperative ownership model
Union Home and Cooperation Minister Amit Shah will launch the driver-owned ‘Bharat Taxi’ initiative in Gandhinagar, a zero-commission cooperative ride-hailing platform. He will also inaugurate the PM Family Care Tracker Pilot Project during his two-day Gujarat visit
Bharat Taxi, a driver-owned cooperative launched in February, has grown to over 35 lakh users and six lakh drivers across India. The zero-commission platform claims higher driver earnings, lower fares for passengers, and is expanding services beyond Gujarat with tech-enabled safety and transit integration
Amit Shah said Bharat Taxi is facing early challenges, including competition from Ola and Uber and resistance to digital adoption. The government-backed platform plans phased expansion while focusing on driver welfare, social security and a zero-commission cooperative model
