The yellow and black taxis, popularly called the ‘Premier Padmini’, which defines the streets of South Mumbai are going to go off the roads soon. According to the new resolution passed by the Maharashtra Government, the age limit of the Premier Padmini, also known as the Fiat ambassador, has been reduced from 25 years to 20 years. This implies that many taxi drivers whose vehicles have crossed the 20-year mark will have to give up their taxis which would be rendered scrap.
