BEIJING- Shanghai's market regulator said on Monday it had summoned 12 e-commerce platforms including Meituan and eleme.me over topics including price gouging during the epidemic.

Platforms were told to improve their management of delivery riders, and stop behaviours such as improper price increases by riders, the regulator said on its wechat account.
