The Road Transport Corporation has got a new chairman Bajireddy Goverdhan and a vice-chairman V.C. Sajjanar. The latter, an IPS officer, has already meant business travelling by an RTC bus from Lakdi-ka-pul to Mahatma Gandhi Bus Station for a first hand experience on commuting. He also inspected the MGBS platforms on another day.
On Sunday, Mr. Sajjanar travelled with his family by an RTC bus to immerse a Ganesh idol. Clad in all white and sporting a Gandhian cap, the senior official was seen in a video occupying a seat with the idol in his hand and chanting of ‘Ganpati bappa’ in the background.
Mr. Goverdhan, who will assume office on Monday, and Mr. Sajjanar will hopefully make a strong combination that will put the corporation back on the rails after a bad year due to pandemic.
After Leader of the Opposition in the Assembly R. Ashok’s prediction on Saturday that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah will step down in November 2025 triggered intense political discussions in the State, Home Minister G. Parameshwara on Sunday said Mr. Siddaramaiah will continue for the full five-year term.
