PUNE: The muddy makeover, which the Pune Mahanagar Parivahan Mahamandal Limited (PMPML) buses get every time it rains in the city, has become a big turn-off for the passengers. To clean up the act, the PMPML officials have said that all bus depots will soon have automatic washing machines.“We are lucky the rains have stopped for now. There are 13 depots and we plan to have automatic washing machines in each one. There is a lot of mud and slush on the roads during the monsoon, and the buses get dirty. A month ago, it was difficult to even get into these buses,” said Atiq Shaikh, a bus commuter..
