Summary:
Drivers working for cab aggregator companies Uber and Ola have announced a strike – the second time this month -- from Saturday night. The union claims that they have the support of 65,000 drivers across Mumbai, Navi Mumbai and Thane. The drivers had withdrawn their strike after 11 days on November 2 after the Transport Minister gave assurance that their demands would be addressed. "About 95 per cent of the drivers are with us," says senior NCP leader Sachin Ahir, who is also president of MRRKS. The Maharashtra Rajya Rashtriya Kamgar Sangh (MRRKS), which is representing the drivers, says this time, drivers who do not want to join in the agitation, will be free to take passengers..
