Mumbai Taximen's Union today moved the Bombay high court seeking a direction to the Mumbai Metropolitan Regional Transport Authority to implement its decision to allow hiking fares of auto rickshaws and taxis plying in the city, besides Thane and Navi Mumbai.

The MMRTA has proposed a Rs 2 fare hike for auto rickshaws and taxis. Accordingly, the minimum auto fare would go up from Rs 15 to Rs 17, while minimum taxi fares would increase from Rs 19 to Rs 21.

In case the court approves the fare hike, the MMRTA is likely to implement it from July 10.
