The Kerala State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) has decided to place under suspension a driver who reportedly assaulted a person who was sitting on the floor of the agency’s Angamaly bus depot on Thursday night. The person, said to be a passenger hailing from a neighbouring State, was reportedly not wearing a mask at the time of the incident. Citing this, the driver assaulted him using a stick. “He could well have informed this COVID norm violation to higher-ups in the KSRTC or to the police. We decided to suspend shunt duty driver V.V. Anto following a report submitted by KSRTC’s Thrissur Vigilance Inspector,” says a communication issued by the agency. According to the KSRTC, the offence committed by the driver is an act of indiscipline and set a bad precedent. The agency’s CMD Biju Prabhakar ordered his suspension.
