Sanjay Samrat, the Delhi Taxi Tourist Transporters Association President,  said in a statement that several unions, including Delhi State Taxi Cooperative Society, and Kaumi Ekta Welfare Association will join the strike on December 8. Accordingly, representatives of various bus and taxi associations on Sunday visited the protesters at Singhu border to extend their support to them.

Kamaljeet Gill, president of the Sarvodaya Driver Association of Delhi, said the association which has drivers working with various cab aggregators as its members, will also join the strike on Tuesday.

However, Rajender Soni, general secretary of Delhi Auto Rickshaw Sangh, and Delhi Pradesh Taxi Union said that many "important" auto, taxi and last-mile vehicle driver unions will not join the strike. "We fully sympathize with the farmers struggle and support their demands. But the drivers of autos, taxis and Gramin Sewa and other last-mile vehicles have already been hit hard by the Covid-19 pandemic and cannot afford to strike now," Soni said.

Chandu Chaurasia, vice president of Capital Driver Welfare Association, said the demands of farmers need to be met by the government but it should not be achieved by causing inconvenience to ordinary people.
