Sakhi auto service ‘by women, for women’ launched in Bengaluru

Vinutha, a disabled person in her thirties, has been driving an auto for the past two years for a living. A former employee at a garment factory, she chose to drive auto as a profession for the love of driving. But the experience has not always been pleasant.

“There have been times when male passengers misbehaved with me,” said Vinutha, who expressed joy at being a part of Sakhi, a newly launched aggregator which offers auto rides by women, for women.
