The government also plans to set up centralized controlled rooms for taxi operators. The Reva government has introduced a new 'City Taxi Scheme', opening up another window for taxi apps such as Gopal Rai and the Delhi Government to come under the legal framework and register themselves for continuing operations in the city. Amalgamating the existing schemes for radio taxis and what it calls 'economy taxis', the government's new programme promises to be an improvement over a previous proposal. "The scheme should be operational in Monday , once the minutes of the (transport) authority (meeting) are released," a senior government official stated. The new proposal has done away with the need for taxi app services to set up centralised control rooms, one of the sticking points Uber was battling under the previous plan.
