Karnataka Transport Minister Ramalinga Reddy commented that he had not received the order's copy yet but acknowledged that the division bench has quashed the earlier ruling.
Uber responded positively to the decision, noting that bike taxis are essential for urban mobility, providing an affordable solution and supporting livelihoods for many drivers.
