A lot of passengers turned up at Majestic bus stand on Monday morning, leading to complaints about lack of adequate number of BMTC buses
Public transport, which was halted for over 50 days to contain the spread of the second wave of COVID-19, resumed on Monday morning. In the morning, passengers at Majestic bus stand accused the Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) of not running adequate number of buses and forcing them to wait for hours. Gurumurthy, a passenger, said, “Due to the lockdown, I could not consult a doctor. On Monday, I got an appointment. I reached the bus stand very early and waited for one hour for a bus to Bannerghatta Road. The BMTC should have operated more buses, as they are allowing a limited number of passengers. Besides, no passenger is allowed to stand even if all the seats are taken.”
