The AAP-led Delhi government has come in support of radio-taxi aggregators, who were banned after a woman passenger was allegedly raped by an Uber call taxi driver.

Transport Minister Gopal Rai on Thursday, directed Uber and Ola, to furnish details about operations, if their drivers want to continue services.

Fresh licence applications will be considered after they furnish affidavits, said Mr. Rai.

He also made it clear that operators must agree to standard and stringent safety norms, particularly for women passengers, if they want to restart their operations in the city.
