Karimnagar: The bus stop of the seat, which is the focal point of North Telangana, has witnessed a large gathering of people during the past few days. Although the inflow into the bus parade has increased after the launch of the Mahalaxmi programme, the facility of free travel for women in TSRTC buses, the festival of Sankranti has increased the inflow into the bus parade even more. As the influx of RTC buses becomes intense during the festive season, passengers will choose different modes of transportation, such as automobiles, autorickshaws and other private vehicles. However, this time the situation has changed. Since free transport service is available, most women travel in RTC buses. Some women will not like to travel in buses full of people. But there are also specific corporate buses to avail the free travel facilities. Although RTC Karimnagar zone officials said they had operated 225 additional buses on various routes to meet the needs of passengers after the festival, they saw people waiting for hours at bus parks due to shortage of buses on some routes. . Although several buses were available on Hyderabad, Warangal and some other main routes, there were no proper services on village routes. As a result, passengers were seen running towards the buses and following them blindly, with only one bus reaching the other bus after a long time. Although unable to board buses packed with people, some passengers were seen moving to private vehicles. In a statement to Telangana Today, Rajitha said that it was the first time that he was seeing such a large number of passengers, especially women, at the bus stop. Rajith, who came to Husnabad, said that normally there was a bus service to Husnabad every 10 or 15 minutes. However, I was waiting for the bus for more than 30 minutes. Although there were enough passengers for more than three buses, only one arrived after a long time. He said, hence not all the passengers boarded the bus.
