"A travel company and an LGBT rights organisation have come together to launch a new taxi service for the LGBT community in India.

The Humsafar Trust and Wings Travel have teamed up to train five drivers for the "Wings Rainbow" service, which will begin taking passengers next year in Mumbai.

The five drivers, whom are members of the LGBT community, will undergo a year's training which includes attaining permanent drivers licenses and training in customer etiquette."
