The Karnataka Drivers' Association has protested against Kempegowda International Airport's new parking policy, which requires private taxis to park 800 meters from Terminal 1 and limits parking at Terminal 2 to just 8 minutes before penalties apply. Drivers claim these rules create hardships for both passengers and their livelihoods, while airport authorities maintain the changes aim to reduce congestion and improve the overall travel experience.
