A fallout of the odd-even vehicle number scheme in Delhi

A friend of mine, faculty in a b-school and residing in New Delhi writes:

Requested 20 odd autorikshaw drivers to shuttle me up to my college in East Delhi, a little off the Ring Road, during the 2nd phase of odd-even traffic scheme (being enforced for a span of 15 days w.e.f 2016-04-15).

8 demanded a minimum of 50% extra with their right to demand,
6 demanded boldly an exorbitant amount as meters of their autorickshaws were not working,
3 agreed to oblige with Rs. 10 extra over and above actual meter readings,
3 were kind enough to ferry me while charging the actual meter readings.

My friend goes on to request the almighty to shower blessing over the three who agreed to charge the actual fare.
Unfortunately, according to him, the Delhi Government is pampering such culprits rather than taking action against them.

He prays to the almighty to shower some pragmatic wisdom over Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal.
