As soon as they get up, the fare should be 14, demanded the bus owners
If you get on a private bus-minibus, you have to pay a minimum of 14 rupees. Six private bus owners' organizations are going to demand a fare hike from the state government to reduce the losses in the Corona situation. Joint Council of Bus Syndicates, Bengal Bus Syndicate, Bus Bus Minibus Owners Association, Bus-Minibus Coordinating Committee, City Suburban Bus Service And the leadership of the Minibus Operators Coordination Committee. Bus owners complain that the price of diesel has gone up by more than Rs 10 per liter in the last few months. In addition, other costs, including bus insurance and maintenance, have risen. In this situation local train and metro services have been introduced but there are still not enough passengers in the bus. In other words, the number of passengers needed to maintain the balance of expenditure with income is not happening. So the fleet of losses is increasing day by day. That is why not all buses on most routes are on the same day. In this situation, the bus owners think that the only solution is to increase the fare. Madan Mitra, chairman of the state government's special committee on transport, said, "Former transport minister Shuvendu Adhikari has not informed the state chief minister about the problems of bus owners in 10 months." This problem is created by him. I will sit down with them tomorrow. Surely the solution will come out. I'll tell them to be patient. " Pradeep Narayan Basu, joint secretary of the Bus-Minibus Owners Association, said on the day, "We will send a letter to the transport secretary with all the organizations informing them of our demands." I will wait till Gangasagar Mela. If I don't get a response in those days, I will join the movement. We have no other option but to increase the rent. " Although he did not appear in person at the meeting, Tapan Bandyopadhyay, general secretary of the Joint Council of Bus Syndicates, said: So the only way to keep the service running is to increase fares, "said Titu Saha of City Suburban Services. I am asking the government to think about how to run the bus by keeping the income and expenditure in balance. The state government has repeatedly said that it does not want to impose additional burden on the people by increasing the fare of private buses in Corona situation. That is why Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee did not agree to increase the rent. However, it is alleged that some of the bus owners are charging extra fare on different routes. As a result, there have been incidents of clashes between bus workers and passengers on several routes. To avoid such a situation, various organizations of private bus owners have decided to be vocal in demanding increase in bus fares.Your OTP is hacked!
