The local bike-taxi aggregator App was developed by group of young entrepreneurs led by its Managing Director, Pynskhemlang W Uriah.
Uriah said Jets 24X7 is aimed at providing employment to the youth of the state, with a motto to “Uplift Our Own” and has procured license to operate as a taxi aggregator in the state from the transport department.
