Mumbai Cabbies

Frustrations of living in Mumbai – to survive in the city of dreams is no less than a struggle in itself.

Everyday morning when I leave for work, I am forced to wait for 20 minutes for a Cab driver to accept me in his "esteemed taxi" and take me to my requested destination.

Since the travel distance is small and it is a minimum fare charge, taxi drivers are most aversive to take me in. Not only that, they are outright rude and just look outside the window if they don't intend to go.

I wonder every single morning if there are any rules and regulations, under which a taxi driver is disallowed by law to refuse a potential client.

This is a huge problem for people who stay in South Mumbai and want to travel in close distances. If anyone knows a solution to this problem, please e-mail me.
