These 138 bus route is where you get the worse drivers and the service. They do not care for other passengers drivers and they are not even stopped by the police en-route.They have the law by the ba.....s. Simple, can the Govt. minister introduce a CTB proper bus service, some with A/C to this 138 route ? never ,
Someone in the Ministry will take a "fat somthing" and it will never happen.

The Private bus owners mafia, must be controlled. The state must increase the state run buses in these routes to minimize difficulties for commuters.

This is the problem with privatizing essential services. They start trade union actions willy nilly, even for their personal reasons! Anybody interfering with the duty of law enforcement authorities should be NOT be tolerated.

Dont talk about Traffic Cop's, because of few culprits entire department suffers, dont think about Private Busses, because some want follow traffic policies passengers always suffer.

What exactly is the complaint by the buses against the traffic police? I have used route 138 on occasions and those buses (like the majority) are driven fast, blasting horns, slamming on brakes and knocking down passengers, etc.

A strike for silly issues, no one cares about consequences on working office people/other public, how will they suffer at such places in case on strikes, they made it public which has to be faced between two people.

If the authorities are right then they must not give in to the private bus mafia. Its about time they were put in their place.
