Ola Autos to now have protective partition screens, mandatory fumigation

Ride-hailing firm Ola said all of the autorickshaws on its platform will be fitted with a protective partition screen between the driver-partner and passenger section as an additional layer of protection to ensure physical separation. The effort is part of the company’s RideSafeIndia initiative launched recently.

The SoftBank-backed company said it is committed to investing in this category and ensuring the hygiene protocols and screens are being used across over 120 cities where Ola Autos operate. Ola has also set up a network of over 100 fumigation centres across the country to enable mandatory fumigation for all vehicles every 48
