Taxi strikes

Been coping with this for the last few days now.
Dad's cataract surgery is there today, 27 February.
Saturday had to come for a check up.
Usually coming and going was a breeze. Just book a cab and get in.
Since Thursday, Ola and Uber have been on strike. No taxis. Meru is not on strike but to get a Meru has become a difficult thing.
Saturday, had to come out to the main road and get an auto to come for a checkup. While going back home, I got an auto at the hospital gate.
Today morning, tried booking cabs but nothing worked.
Then tried Ola auto. That actually worked. I had a auto guy come up to me.
For the first time in Bangalore, I was able to ride an auto for less than 100 rupees.
And I was able to get to the hospital in time.
