MTC draws flak for running only deluxe buses to boost revenue
The Hindu
Commuters of the Metropolitan Transport Corporation (MTC) buses are made to cough up extra for their ride as the transport utility allegedly runs only deluxe services on many routes.
The MTC, which operates a 3,425-strong fleet with a mix of ordinary, express and deluxe buses in the city, has, since the relaxation of travel restrictions, reduced or stopped operating express bus services on all routes resulting in commuters having to travel in deluxe bus services. During the pre-COVID-19 period, the MTC operated around 1,250 ordinary services, 1,225 express buses and 950 deluxe services.
