Taxi-hailing firm Uber on Thursday  said it will not levy dynamic or surge pricing during the odd-even car rule implementation. "This is a moment of crisis and public health emergency in Delhi NCR. Uber is committed to fully supporting the odd- even scheme. "As a first step, we have decided to suspend dynamic pricing during the odd-even days. Additionally, rides to and from metro stations will also ply on reduced fares,” Uber India general manager, north and Delhi-NCR, Prabhjeet Singh said.
