Unlock guidelines: Autos in Noida can take only 2 passengers

NOIDA: Autos can carry no more than two passengers and e-rickshaws a maximum of three, according to new Unlock guidelines issued by the traffic police. On Thursday, the traffic police held a meeting with auto union members, e-rickshaw drivers and bus drivers, who were informed about the guidelines.
Those on two-wheelers have to wear a mask other than a helmet. Cabs can take three passengers. The cops have warned of issuing challans and seizure of vehicles in case rules are violated.
At the bus stand, the UP Roadways bus drivers and conductors were told that UP Parivahan Nigam buses would be allowed to commute within UP only if they stick to the number of the passengers allowed by the government.
There can be no standing passengers in any of the buses.
“Suggestions were sought from the unions and vyapar mandal members about their expectations from the Unlock process. They were asked to adhere to Covid norms,” a statement from police said.
