Government mulling ban on all unregistered cab-services

Uber was banned on Monday after a driver it hired six months ago was arrested for allegedly raping a female passenger on Friday.

The six radio taxi services that are registered are Easy Cabs, Mega Cabs, Meru, Chanson, Yo Cabs and Air Cabs.

"All other transport/taxi service providers through web-based technology, who are not recognised, are prohibited from providing such services in the NCT of Delhi to public till they get license/permission from the Transport Department," a government order said, effectively saying these services have to go off the roads.

Meanwhile, US-based cab company Uber has also been booked for cheating by the Delhi Police in connection with the alleged rape of a 27-year-old finance company executive in its cab by the driver on Friday night here.
