Telangana auto drivers struck Feb. 12, demanding higher fares, a ban on app-based rides, and a regulatory board amid income losses.
On February 12, 2026, auto drivers in Telangana launched a statewide strike demanding higher meter rates, a ban on app-based ride-hailing services like Ola, Uber, and Rapido, and the creation of a separate regulatory board.
The protest, active from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. in Hyderabad, included a rally from Sudha Riah Park to NTR Stadium, with drivers citing unfair competition and declining incomes.
They blame the 2019 Motor Vehicles Act and lack of government oversight for their struggles.
Meanwhile, app-based workers held a nationwide strike on February 7, citing low pay and poor working conditions due to unimplemented 2025 fare guidelines.
