Kolkata Bids Farewell to Its Iconic Yellow Taxis

Image
  Kolkata, the cultural capital of India, is witnessing the end of an era as its beloved yellow taxis gradually disappear from the city streets. This year alone, around 4,500 of these iconic cabs are set to be retired, marking a significant shift in the city's transportation landscape. Once a symbol of Kolkata's charm and character, the yellow taxis have faced growing competition from app-based cab services and other modern transport options. Many taxi operators have struggled to keep pace with changing regulations, rising maintenance costs, and dwindling passenger demand.

As the yellow taxis bid adieu, Kolkata is transitioning to a new era of mobility, but the nostalgia for these cheerful vehicles will linger in the memories of millions.
