In a post written before, I had told about the unavailability
of the meter in Gurgaon due to which people have to pay arbitrary fares imposed
by the auto drivers. But, there are some other options that are the perfect options.
One of them is the booth system. Near MG Road metro station, you find a booth
of Gurgaon police. Two queues can be found on the counters of the booth, among
which one is of the auto drivers and other is off the passengers. You are required
to tell the destination on the booth, where you need to go. A slip will be
given to you by the police official (in civil dress) sitting inside the booth,
with the cost and the name of driver. The driver will take you at your desired destination,
and you are required to pay the amount printed on the slip. Sometimes, the amount
remains very low as compared to the self-willed costs of the auto drivers. It
really saves a lot of money of the people, especially of the newcomers who are
unaware of the auto rates in Gurgaon.
Some people may ask if there are the other metro stations
where this booth system is available. One auto driver once told me and my friends
that there is also one near Huda City Center metro station, but I am not sure
about it. You can check after reaching the station.
