The company earlier said that India was their first priority since the rape incident and that these features will be launched worldwide at a later date. Uber also said that it will make driver background checks in India more stringent.
The taxi company said in a statement that its arrangement with First Advantage brings in additional layers of screening over and above the standard transport licensing process including address verification, a local criminal court search, and a national criminal database search.
After a six-week ban on its services in the wake of the rape incident, Uber finally resumed business in New Delhi last month.
