Woman Passenger Harassed: Karnataka High Court To Hear Ola's Appeal Against Compensation, PoSH Enquiry On March 17

Live Law  

The Karnataka High Court will hear on March 17, the appeal preferred by ANI Technologies, which owns and operates OLA Cabs, challenging a single judge order which directed the company to pay Rs. Apart from ordering compensation, the single judge Justice MGS Kamal had last year also held that the driver would be considered an employee of Ola and had thus directed the Internal Complaints Committee of the company, constituted under the POSH Act, to hold an enquiry in the matter. Following Ola's appeal, the High Court had stayed the single judge order on October 4, 2024. The division bench will also consider the company's contention that since OLA doesn't employ any driver, implementation of the PoSH Act would be debatable.
