Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde officially launched the Bharat Taxi service at the newly built Navi Mumbai International Airport, aiming to provide affordable, regulated cab rides for passengers.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde presided over the inauguration of the Bharat Taxi service at Navi Mumbai International Airport on Thursday. The ceremony was attended by senior state officials and representatives of the transport department, marking the first rollout of the state‑backed taxi platform at the new airport.
Bharat Taxi is positioned as a regulated, government‑endorsed cab service that will operate from the airport terminals, offering standardized fares and a vetted fleet of vehicles. The initiative is part of the state’s broader effort to improve last‑mile connectivity for air travelers and to ensure safety and price transparency.
The launch coincides with the airport’s gradual ramp‑up of commercial operations, and officials expect the service to ease passenger movement, support local employment, and contribute to the airport’s role as a regional transport hub.
