This kinda solution wont work in India. People will use relatives phones to vote for the route and get the route approved, but in reality there will be only one passenger

I was just making a argument. While deciding a route based on votes, it may show 20-30 people(which can be faked).

But in reality this would be used by 1 person. This route can then be cancelled if the service provider wants due to lower number of passenger(low cash flow).
