App-based taxis in Goa: Will they finally hit the road? |

Goa's government has proposed draft guidelines to regulate app-based taxi services, potentially allowing private aggregators. This move faces strong opposition from local taxi unions fearing livelihood threats. The 'Goa Transport Aggregator Guidelines, 2025' include mandatory health insurance, set tariffs, and licensing. Unions worry about job losses and loss of local identity, threatening protests.
