New Delhi: An app-based cab company has challenged the entry fee of Rs.150 imposed on commercial vehicles at Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA), while alleging that some taxi operators were allowed to enter and pick up passengers without paying any fee. This privilege was denied to others, said the cab firm in the Delhi High Court.
In its writ petition filed in the High Court, app-based cab firm Magic Sewa alleged that the Airport Authority of India (AAI) and Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL) were giving preferential treatment to three taxi operators — Easy Cabs, Meru and Mega Taxi — and denying the privilege to others.
A Division Bench, comprising Chief Justice G. Rohini and Justice Jayant Nath, issued notices last week to AAI and DIAL and asked them to file their replies in two weeks before the Single Judge who is hearing the plea of Magic Sewa. With this direction, the Bench disposed of the cab company’s appeal against the Single Judge’s decision not to grant any interim relief in the case.
The court also advanced the next date of hearing in the matter before the Single Judge from July 22 to May 17. The Single Judge had on February 24 declined to grant interim relief to Magic Sewa, which had sought stay on the Rs.150 entry fee.
