With schools set to reopen on June 10 for classes 1 to 12 in the State, the Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation (TNSTC) Villupuram Division has said that students wearing school uniforms will be permitted free travel on TNSTC buses as usual, until they are provided with bus passes for this academic year. Students can produce the bus passes given to them last year, or their identity cards.
