Report: Soodh
People are finding difficult to get taxis as Ramazan nears. Taxi centers also have said that it is expected such a shortage would be faced during the month of Ramazan.
Taxi owners say that many drivers are going to islands to spend time with their families and therefore, it is difficult to maintain the number of taxis they operate during other months.
Taxi Drivers’ Association has also informed N.Velidhoo Community that they have received some public complaints. However, the Vice President of the Association Yoosuf Zuhury said that it is difficult to address the issue.
He said that drivers also want to be with the families and many of the drivers are from islands. They find it easy to spend the month on holidays with their families in the islands.
Taxi centers also noted that many people from the islands have come to Male’ for the month of Ramazan and that has also increased the demand for taxis. Further, they also pointed to the fact that this is a rainy time and requires lot of taxi trips.
