Bengaluru: the Karnataka government on Thursday asked the striking drivers attached to cab aggregators Uber and Ola to approach the labour court, as their strike with charter of demands entered the second day.

“It doesn’t come under our preview...government doesn’t have anything to do with the contract signed between the Ola, Uber, cab drivers and owners," transport minister Ramalinga Reddy told reporters here.

He said “As they approached us I had asked the commissioner (transport) to conduct meetings. Five meetings were held, Ola and Uber did not agree...so our commissioner has advised them (drivers) to approach the labour court."
