Facing severe criticism from Delhi government, taxi aggregator Ola on
Wednesday said it will offer free rides for its 'Shuttle' bus service on
April 22 and 29, 2016 under the second phase of odd-even scheme.
This comes days after the company temporarily suspended surge pricing after the state government threatened to cancel permits for charging higher than prescribed fares.
Ola runs over 500 shuttles in Delhi-NCR covering 120 routes and ferries over 20,000 people on a daily basis.
Ola Shuttle customers need to use the coupon code ODDEVEN to get 100 per cent cash-back on their rides on April 22 and 29, Mr Sahni added.
Delhi AAP Government is running the second phase of odd-even scheme from April 15,2016.
Under the 15-day scheme, odd and even number cars are allowed to ply on the roads on alternative days. There are no restrictions on Sundays.
Ola has also rolled out an on-ground campaign to encourage citizens across Delhi to adopt ride-sharing. Ola volunteers are stationed at key traffic junctions, around metro stations and other high footfall areas across the city to engage and guide users towards the most suitable ride-sharing option
