Previously, the Assam government approved three new flyovers in Guwahati, according to Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on November 28.
The decision was made during a cabinet meeting in Silchar presided over by Sarma.
As per the Assam CM, the three flyovers will come up at traffic points near Down Town Hospital, Fatasil Garchuk, and Kumarpara-Fatasil.
The Assam cabinet decided on December 15 that private vehicle owners can now operate their vehicles as UberPool, OlaShare, or an aggregator without changing the number plates.
It should be noted that, in addition to Ola and Uber, the bike-taxi service provider Rapido has captured a significant market share.
As a result, the Assam state government has decided to establish regulations for riding two-wheelers on the road.
