All Goa taxi owner slammed government to have hand in glove with the agencies who are officially authorized to issue speed governor machines. They claim to be a big scam, as they have been issued with the certificates of speed governors without the installation. The Taxi Owners met the director of transport on Tuesday putting forth their grievances regarding the speed governors. Speaking to media Bhaskar Narulkar, said that we are not satisfied with the speed governors which are already installed by the respective car agency, as they are defective. However, when we approached the agency about the outdated device, they demanded additional 5000 amount to change the device.
He further claimed that the issued certificates are fraud and government should intervein into this matter. Narulkar even said that agency named GEMINI has step back from any responsibilities which were not acceptable by the owners and some concrete action should be taken to resolve the matter. Other taxi driver claimed that due to negligence from the authorities we are being penalized and the cars are getting seized by the RTO. He raised concern by saying “how are we supposed to survive without operating taxi. The government itself is not capable of providing jobs nor they can support our business, he added.
All Goa taxi owners urged the Director of Transport to take immediate action to rectify the situation.

Government is not taking any cognizance
Fake certificates have been issued
