Mumbai has always been the bustling sort. It is vibrant, fast-moving
and as rightly said, it city that never sleeps. As Mumbaikars are completely dependent on the public transport system in the city, when the fare of the transportation went up for the 3rd time in the same year.
It became a matter of unanimous concern and outrage. After the recent price hike to Rs.15 from 11th October 2012 onwards, local commuting has become very difficult and expensive. Paying Rs.10-15 more than what you usually paid to the nearest café forces you to increase your monthly traveling budget. Which makes us question ourselves, is it worth traveling in a rickshaw? Are you being overcharged by the rickshawallah? Your instincts may be right!
