Kochiites, it seems, have received the recently introduced Thiru Kochi city bus service, operated by the KSRTC, with much fervour. The increase in revenue from these buses itself justifies the statement. At last, the private bus operators started their 18th way against these buses.
Now the private bus operators and their men started operations against KSRTC's Thiru Kochi City services. Many of the drivers of KSRTC city services were offered bribe by the private bus operators to ensure that the former conduct the services in such way that it would not affect the profiteering of private plyers.
There were also attempts to deflate the tyres of KSRTC buses.
The private operators who have raised a gauntlet against the KSRTC operations in Cochin have also appear to be heading towards a consensus that both private and government sector operations should try to co-exist. They feel it is not the fleet owners who will suffer but only the individual bus owners who have one or two buses in operation.
Now these bus operators are planning to start a strike in Kochi against the "Unreasonable" introduction of KSRTC buses in the city.
Transport Minister Jose Thettayil warned the private bus operators that not to conduct the bus strike in the city. If they continue with that, KSRTC will introduce more city buses.
All these incidents showing that, the introduction of KSRTC City buses affecting the collection of private bus operators.
To private Bus Operators:
Please Avoid the following issues which is coming from your side and make it as a challenge with KSRTC.
1) The reckless life taking driving of private bus drivers
2) The Unprecedented Delay of travel due to internal politics in bus timings, or Over speeding.
3) Try to behave politely to the passengers, They are paying you. If they don't want your service? Whom you can blame?
