Amid concerns, Bengaluru auto drivers’ own ride-hailing app goes live on November 1

Bengaluru, 1/11: Namma Yatri, the ride-hailing app put together by auto-rickshaw drivers, is officially launching on November 1 in what promises to be a David vs Goliath battle in Bengaluru’s mobility space.

 

 

The app was released on Google Play in early October and has seen more than 10,000 downloads in the testing phase.

 

Autorickshaw Drivers’ Union (ARDU), which is behind Namma Yatri, hopes the app will beat mobility behemoths Uber and Ola at their own game.
