A set of taxis by bike in Bengalur.
The state government has no power to refuse to register two -wheelers, because the transport vehicles or the granting of contractual transport allows them to transfer passengers under the “Political Decision” family, when the Motor Vehicles Act (MV) allows two -round vehicles to be used as vehicles for the transport of contracts.
This argument was presented before the division’s bench, which includes the reigning chief judge V. Kameswar Rao and CM Joshi during the hearing of appeal against the second judge who ruled that Ola, Uber and Rapido cannot offer their platform on their platform.
What the government. said
The declaration of the prejudiced court by the general lawyer that the government has adopted “political decision” not to change the rules/instructions to allow the bike tax to be contrary to the provisions of the MV Act, has been argued.
Dyan Chinnappa, head of the defense attorney, appeared for several two -wheel owners, pointed out that the Division Bench of the High Court in 2021 showed that the definition of contractual transport under the MV law also includes a motorcycle to be used to rent and reward.
The act of the State Authorities for Transportation in the refusal of two -wheelers as traffic vehicles is a violation of the law, Mr. Chinnappa said.
Why there is a provision in the MV Act, which prescribes a fine on the contractual transport authorization, including double -colored, refusing to throw or carry passengers, if the law does not recognize the registration of two -rounds as a transport vehicle and granting a contractual transport, Mr. Chinnappa argued.

He Also Contended that there is no Need for Separate License or Permission for the Aggregators Like Ola, Uber, Rapido and Others to Offer Bike-Taxis on their Platforms as the License by the State Government Under Sufficient As It Covers Motor Cabs, WHICH INCLUDE event Two-Wheeleers.
