In a significant move to enhance regulatory oversight and security, Islamabad's district administration has announced a crackdown on unregistered online taxi services. According to ProPakistani, the authorities have mandated that all online ride-hailing and taxi services must complete formal registration, which includes the collection of comprehensive records of drivers and vehicles. The Additional Deputy Commissioner (East) has been tasked with ensuring compliance by contacting the chief executives of these companies. Furthermore, the Deputy Commissioner has instructed the transport authority to target unregistered motorcycle taxi operators. A digital automation process will facilitate the registration, and all data will be accessible to the Islamabad Police through a dedicated application. This initiative is part of a broader effort to regulate the rapidly growing ride-hailing sector and ensure safety and accountability.
