Consumer rights organisation Coimbatore Consumer Cause (CCC) wrote to Chief Minister M.K. Stalin seeking action against deluxe buses run by the Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation (TNSTC) in Coimbatore that collect excess fare from passengers and to also allow women passengers to avail the free bus travel scheme in these buses. In the letter, CCC secretary K. Kathirmathiyon charged that the deluxe buses were being operated despite the District Collector/Regional Transport Authority not issuing any permits to operate deluxe bus services and that permits and fare tables were approved only for ordinary bus services. “The TNSTC has also confirmed in writing to us that all the city buses - 675 buses - in Coimbatore are only ordinary services and no luxury bus service [was] permitted in Coimbatore,” he claimed.More Related News
