Prabhjeet Singh, Uber India & South Asia’s President, shared the company’s aim to blend technology and tradition. “At Uber, we strive to make mobility magical and effortless for all our valued travellers,” he said. “Uber Shikara blends technology with tradition to provide a seamless experience for Shikara rides in Kashmir.” He added that the initiative enhances accessibility and promotes tourism in Kashmir’s breathtakingly picturesque landscapes.
