I know it's confusing when white people are called "terrorist", but the definition clearly fits. If it helps you to understand, think about the Pune/Bombay examples I linked to above (where the perpetrators and victims are all brown).
I believe the strikers, not the uber taxi drivers, are the ones that are called 'terrorists' here.
