Auto Rickshaw — tampered digital meters

Hi,
This is regrading the auto rickshaw with registration number KA AA-5870. I had hired this rickshaw from Jayanagar 2nd Block RV road to Murugeshpalya at around 1.45 pm on Dec 30, 2010.

Initially it seemed fine for a few kilometers but then I noticed that the meter fare was jumping by one rupee for every 5-7 meter distance. I got panicked because from Jayanagar 2nd Block to Oasis Mall in koramangala , the fare was already Rs 130. And I swear that the meter was rising every 5-7 meters distance which is way too, too much. I argued with him that the meter is not correct. He could not respond and answer me properly. Finally, I asked to drop me much before Pizza Hut in Kormangala as he was clearly a fraudulent driver. Moreover, I also later noticed that he did not have his identity and license details at the back of his seat, which usually is present in all auto rickshaw's in Bangalore.

Same morning I had taken another auto from Murugeshpalya to Jayanagar 2nd Block and I was charged Rs 99, which I felt was fine, given the distance. But the latter one actually conned me. I asked him to stop, and had to walk from Pizza Hut in Koramangala to my place in Murugeshpalya.

I request that the concerned authorities take strict action against this auto driver with rickshaw registration number KA AA-5870. You will still find that the license number , photograph is missing at the back of driver's seat and in front of the passengers. Also, test the digital meter. It is no way correct. He is cheating people.

Please take action at the earliest.

Thanks,
Vishal

Auto Rickshaw Meter Faster than normal — Auto Rickshaw meter faster than normal

I traveled from Nehru Road, Vile Parle (East) to Seepz Andheri (Eas) and auto number was MH-03-BA-64. Normally the meter reading is between Rs2.90 to Rs.3.50. Since I travel daily by auto I know what is the normal range of fare. I have seen the meter reading of Rs.2.90 even with heavy traffic on the road. However even after giving the benfit of doubt about traffic it shouldn't cross beyond Rs.3.50, however today it was Rs.4.00. I had to pay Rs.53 which normally ranges between Rs.35 to 45. I brought this to the notice of Auotrkishwala. I told him to take the auto to police. Then he started aruging and kept doing so. However since I was also in hurry to report to office, I couldn't take him to police. His meter was FAST and hence need to take appropriate action against him. His Auto number was MH-03-BA-64.

Tampered Digital meters in Hyderabad
It happened that I traveled by an auto Rikshaw in Hyderabad from RTC X Roads to Nizampet Road. The travel distance is 21.1 KM as per other auto rikshaws which i travel daily. But this auto which i travelled today showed 36 KM.

I was struck in traffic and that's when I saw the meter clocked 0.6 KM even though we have not traveled 50 M and when I asked the driver he told me "Saab waiting toh lagega na"

I hereby provide you the RTO registration Number of the auto
AP 11 Y 5974

I plead the concerned authorities to take action against these crooks

I travelled by Auto AP 13 1637 on 22nd Jan 2014 at 6.30 AM from Kachiguda Rly station to Ramanthapur.The Meter was reading Rs150/ as against the correct reading of Rs 80/.

This was engaged with the help of Traffic Police at the Kachiguda Rly Station.
