Train Fares hiked after 10 years ! kbsyed61 - 9-JAN-2013
<Posting on behalf of Sanjeev> Finally the Ministry of Railways, has bit the bullet - Hiked the passenger fares across the board. Though the hike is very modest and reasonable, already voices of opposition are heard from BJP, and other known socialists. Nothing new in Indian politics. |

Mid day pass, and age for senior citizen pass in BMTC tellvkb - 2-JAN-2013
Kudos to KSRTC for age reduction - now decreased fare by 25% for senior citizens for 60 yrs from 65 earlier. But still in BMTC daily pass is still 50 for senior citizen even after having proof. They accept only BMTC id card. Why should we need one more card if we already have KSRTC id card /voter's id/govt id card ? |

Bus fare more expensive than driving car...!! dnivra - 30-JUL-2012
This is an issue that I have been pursuing for more than a year now. Last November, the Chief Minister's office was kind enough to take note and forward it to MD of BMTC... and the wait continues! Hence, taking this to the public domain... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

How far can Rs.2/- go? In these days is Rs. Two worth anything? If you want to get into a BMTC bus and get down at the next stop it costs Rs.4. A cup of coffee or tea costs anything above Rs.8. Auto fare is min. Rs. 20 and Metro Rs.10. |

BMTC fare hike - mismanagement of funds? ss87 - 27-JUN-2011
While there have been good inputs of routes and various features like Bus Day and other things going fine there was a huge blow-rise in diesel rates by Rs.3 a litre. Immediately there was a bus fare increase announced by the transport corporations-was this hike seriously necessary?? |
