Lucknow, August 21: The Yogi Government in Uttar Pradesh has introduced the Uttar Pradesh Motor Vehicles (Aggregator and Delivery Service Provider) Rules, 2026, aimed at enhancing transport and delivery services. The new framework emphasizes passenger safety, driver welfare, pollution monitoring, electric mobility, fare transparency, and prompt grievance resolution.
App-based passenger transport and delivery services are covered under this new policy. Aggregators must follow a prescribed process for operations, with application and licensing fees set at Rs 25,000 and Rs 5 lakh, respectively. A security deposit requirement, based on fleet size, will be imposed to enhance accountability.
Passenger safety is a top priority, with drivers undergoing character verification, police checks, and psychological testing. Refresher training and insurance coverage for passengers and drivers are also mandatory. Fare transparency will be ensured, with dynamic pricing limited to 50% above the base fare. Aggregators must appoint a Grievance Redressal Officer to address passenger complaints.
The policy also includes pollution monitoring and a plan to transition fleets towards electric vehicles. This initiative will help reduce pollution in the National Capital Region and promote eco-friendly transportation in Uttar Pradesh.
