Calangute:
State govt will form a coordination committee of various taxi unions, transport department officials and other stakeholders to resolve the taxi aggregator issue, said Calangute MLA Michael Lobo on Thursday.
The MLA said that he spoke to chief minister Pramod Sawant after meeting taxi owners a few days ago and it has been decided to hold meetings with all stakeholders to decide on 'what should be done'. Representatives of the North and South Goa taxi unions also met the Calangute MLA and Siolim MLA Delilah Lobo on Thursday.
'The taxi issue will be 100% resolved. It is the need of the hour to save our tourism industry. Customers should not have any problems. We also discussed a lot of other problems faced by tourists that also need to be solved,' said the Calangute MLA.
Stating that they stand by the taxi owners, the Siolim MLA said, 'We don't want any more aggregators and at the same time, there has to be transparency. We have to solve this issue once and for all.'
