BENGALURU:

ಕಾರ್‌ಪೂಲಿಂಗ್ ನಿಷೇಧಿಸಿಲ್ಲ, ಇದು ಸುಳ್ಳು ಸುದ್ದಿ.

ಮೊದಲು ಅವರು ಸರ್ಕಾರದಿಂದ ಅನುಮತಿಯನ್ನು ಪಡೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳಲಿ. ಅವರು ಅನುಮತಿಯನ್ನು ತೆಗೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳದಿರುವಾಗ ನಿಷೇಧದ ಪ್ರಶ್ನೆ ಎಲ್ಲಿದೆ?

ಪ್ರತಿಯೊಬ್ಬರೂ ಸರ್ಕಾರದ ನಿಯಮಗಳು ಮತ್ತು ನಿಬಂಧನೆಗಳನ್ನು ಅನುಸರಿಸಬೇಕು.

Karnataka Transport Minister Ramalinga Reddy has clarified that carpooling has not been banned but using non-commercial private vehicles with white number plates for such purposes is illegal.

Taking to social media platform X (formerly Twitter), he said, ”Carpooling is not banned, it is a false news. First, let them take permission. When they have not taken the permission where is the question of banning? Everyone should follow the rules and regulations.” ”It is illegal to use non-commercial private vehicles with white number plates for carpooling purposes. Commercial Vehicles with yellow number plates, can be used for carpooling by following appropriate guidelines,” the Minister added. The State government is slated to hold a meeting with carpooling aggregators on Tuesday to discuss the issue.
