Solicitor-General to appear for Karnataka in bike-taxi case
Karnataka has asked the Solicitor‑General to represent the state in a legal challenge over bike‑taxi services. The state contends that the High Court’s order permitting bike‑taxis overlooks the poor safety standards of motorcycles, the higher fatality rate in accidents and the resulting traffic congestion. The Solicitor‑General will argue these points and seek to have the order reconsidered before the court.
