Despite previous challenges, including disruptions caused by local gangs, this initiative has gained widespread acceptance from the public. In just 50 days, around 1,000 rickshaw drivers have registered with the service, offering honest, meter-based fares.
Over 5,000 trips have been completed, providing legitimate earnings of over ₹8 lakh to registered rickshaw drivers. This effort has protected passengers from illegal fare hikes and enhanced safety at the station.
Dr. Keshav Nana Kshirsagar, Chairman of ‘Baghtoy Rikshawwala,’ expressed optimism about the initiative’s continued success, with the potential for it to become a permanent fixture at Pune Station with ongoing police support.
