Maharashtra cab drivers challenge Marathi language rule in Bombay High Court
Cab operators in Maharashtra have moved the Bombay High Court to contest the mandatory Marathi language requirement, arguing that it infringes upon their constitutional rights. The petition claims the rule is a violation of Article 14, which guarantees equality, Article 19, which protects the freedom to practice any profession, and Article 21, which covers the right to life. Furthermore, the plea notes that the Motor Vehicles Act of 1988 does not include any specific language criteria for obtaining a driving license.
