Autorickshaw driver beaten to death over Rs 10 change in Hyderabad
Digital Desk | Hyderabad, Sep 21 (IANS) An auto-rickshaw driver was to death allegedly by a group of people following an argument over Rs. 10 change in the old city of Hyderabad, police said. The incident occurred on Sunday evening in Vattepally under limits of Falaknuma Police Station. The victim was identified as Mohammed Mukarram (42). His brother Mohammed Afroz said he was brutally assaulted and murdered in front of his family members. According to Afroz, when a passenger who gave Rs.200 note to Mukarram towards the auto fare of Rs.10, Mukarram asked him to pay the change. This led to an argument and the passenger called some others who thrashed Mukarram, resulting in grievous injuries. He succumbed before he could be shifted to a hospital. Afroz alleged that Azeem, reporter of a local news channel, Shoaib and 6-8 others were involved in the killing. My brother was epileptic and weak-hearted. Despite my requests to spare him, they kept raining blows on him and he collapsed, said Afroz as he broke down narrating the incident before media. Mukarram is survived by wife and four children. Afroz demanded the government to do justice to the family by ensuring harshest punishment to the killers. Police said they have registered a case and took up investigation. All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) MLA Mohammed Mubeen visited the area and consoled the family of the victim. The MLA demanded immediate arrest of the accused. He voiced concern over the growing incidents of crime in Vattepally area and demanded the police to intensify patrolling. The incident occurred amid spate of murders in Hyderabad. The city has witnessed eight murders during the last two weeks. Use of knives, sickles and other sharp-edged weapons for targeting murders in crowded places is causing a huge public concern. Last week, a rowdy sheeter was hacked to death inside a wine shop permit room in Bandlaguda area. Previous enmity with a childhood friend was said to be the motive behind the killing. Voicing concern over the series of murders, AIMIM president and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi recently demanded that the government establish dedicated anti-murder squads of the police to ensure swift investigations and secure convictions within a year.

Public consultations on Tamil Nadu auto fare revision on Sep 23
Digital Desk | Chennai, Sep 20 (IANS) The Tamil Nadu Transport Department has directed district Collectors to hold public consultation meetings on September 23 as part of the governments move to revise auto-rickshaw fares across the state. Representatives of auto-rickshaw unions, consumer organisations, commuters and other stakeholders are expected to participate in the meetings, and their views will be considered before the government finalises the revised fare structure. Tamil Nadu has around 3.46 lakh registered auto-rickshaws. The fares currently in force were fixed in 2013 and have remained unchanged despite repeated demands from drivers associations for a revision. Under the existing structure, passengers are charged Rs 25 for the first 1.8 kilometres and Rs 12 for every subsequent kilometre. Auto-rickshaw unions have argued that the existing rates are no longer viable because of the increase in fuel prices and the rising cost of maintenance, insurance, spare parts, and other essential expenses. They have demanded that the minimum fare be raised to Rs 45 and that passengers be charged Rs 20 for every additional kilometre. The Transport Commissionerate has asked district administrations to consult consumer groups and other stakeholders before submitting their recommendations. The process is intended to arrive at a fare structure that safeguards the livelihood of drivers without imposing an unreasonable financial burden on passengers. Tamil Nadu Progressive Consumer Centre President Sadagopan urged the government to complete the consultation process and announce the revised fares without further delay. He said an early decision was particularly important as passenger demand was likely to rise during the approaching Ayudha Puja and Deepavali festival seasons. Supporting the demand raised by auto-rickshaw unions, Sadagopan proposed a minimum fare of Rs 45 and Rs 20 for every kilometre travelled thereafter. He also called for stronger regulatory measures to ensure transparency and prevent disputes between passengers and drivers. He urged the government to make digital fare meters and Global Positioning System devices compulsory in all auto-rickshaws. These measures would help calculate fares accurately, strengthen passenger safety and enable the authorities to monitor compliance. The government is expected to examine the suggestions collected during the district-level meetings before announcing its decision. The revision will affect lakhs of commuters and drivers who depend on auto-rickshaws for their daily travel and livelihood.
