Todax while coming back from office(Dell Domlur) none of the auto's were ready to come to my place(Ejipura) at 8pm. Most of the days I come by walk. Today finally one guy agreed for Rs 40(usually when I come by meter it is 30). I came with him and he disagreed to leave me near my point saying I won't go inside Ejipura, you can give me the money and go from here on further. I was surpised to see this behaviour. I said if this was the case I wouldn't have boarded his auto that too paying extra money...he replied stating it is his auto and that's what he'll do. I said it is public service auto and he is supposed serve public and if he cannot change the color and make it private. Because of people like him other passengers who are come from outside Karnataka give bad comments about Karnataka. I noted the number and informed him that I'll be complaining about this. After this he abusive words and threatened me that he'll take care of me at same place where I boarded the auto. Daily I have issues getting auto my place to office...sometimes around 10-12 auto's deny to go this nearby place and I get the auto from main road. It is commonly noticed that auto drivers will shamelessly ask 1.5 meter or even double meter during daytime stating that they have to return empty no matter which destination you go.
Following are the details of the issue I reported above:
Auto no.: KA03 A875
Complaint: 1. Meter not working.
2.Charged extra amount around 8pm.
3. Dropped me before the destination was reached.
4.When informed that I'll complaint auto driver threatened me stating u come there again I'll take care of you. Was abusive.
