Kolkata: Buses are hard to find, cabins threaten to strike

Kolkata: almost two weeks have passed because the bus service has been continued and still, a personal bus is difficult to find on the city road.
More expensive fuel, the operator said, stopped them from taking a bus on the road.

Meanwhile, part of the taxi operator has threatened to strike if the cost is not immediately revised.

However, the government does not have an atmosphere to revise tariffs and put more pressure on people who are at the end of the recipient of the pandemic.
The number of private buses currently less than 500, which is only 10% of the fleet carrying passengers throughout the city.
On weekdays, more than 5,000 Ply’s personal bus across the city.
“But we cannot recover operating costs with old tariffs.
Unlike government buses, we have no support for subsidies,” the Council said together the syndicate of the Sepatikan of the Tapan Banerjee Secretary.
“If the 500 bus ply in the morning, they disappeared in the afternoon and we waited for hours for the bus and finally climbed to the vehicle.
It has become a routine for the last 10 days.
Most personal buses are just not ply during rush hour night, “Naren Gupta said, who traveled every day from the office of Ganesh Avenue to his Mayurbuhan’s residence.
Commuter complains that even the country bus becomes very irregular.

“Our members face insults and shame if they demand additions above the meter tariff only to compensate for high fuel costs.
So we ask the government to revise the cost of saving meter taxis, which should be extinct soon,” said Convenious Conventor Nawal Kishore Srivastava.
The only taxi and taxi application can make some advantages is to run a shuttle service in certain high demand routes such as Esplanade-Shyambazar, Esplanade-Thakurkukur and the Esplanade-Jadavpur route.
