GTDC says pehle taxi App despite tourism departments opposition

GTDC has decided to go ahead with the local taxi app despite the opposition of the Taxi drivers and owners. This is also not in line with the Tourism departments thinking.
 
Nilesh Cabral doesn’t seem to realize that he should leave taxi drivers and tourism department sort out this issue and he should work with his near to defunct projects which he chooses to turn a blind eye to. Sort out the GTDC hotels and make them viable rather then float tenders .

Salaulim dam area lacks tourism infrastructure

Tourist visiting the scenic Salaulim dam are facing a lot of hardships in the absence of basic facilities .

GTDC, should in turn focus of reconstruction and maintenance of facilities instead on venturing in the taxi business. Nislesh Cabral is absolutely in the dark, not knowing that an existing structure was under the Archaeological Survey of India, shows how cut off from the ground he really is

The ‘NO’ cry from Taxi lobby gets shriller

The ‘NO’ cry from Taxi lobby gets shriller , the taxi operators are yet again opposing an attempt, this time by GTDC to introduce an app .
 
GTDC and Nilesh Cabral, who failed miserably when he attempted the women’s taxis,should stay away from getting his fingers and hands burned this time around.
 
Yes the Taxis’s need an App based system and it is very high time that the Taxi operator union leaders work this out for themselves, if not they should realise that they are the ones who stand to loose.
