Summary:
Cancellation of regular Thiruvananthapuram-Punalur fast passenger bus at 6.30 am meant she had to stretch her three-and-a-half hour journey to over six hours. Though the KSRTC management said there would be a fast passenger service at five-minute intervals during office hours, many had to wait for over 45 minutes. Meanwhile, the regular passengers of Nedumangad- Pathanamthitta fast passenger which was also cancelled following the Monday reforms were also upset with the move. They had successfully fought for reinstating the bus service when it was cancelled in February. The group members petitioned the KSRTC which gave them assurance that Nedumangad-Pathanamthitta fast passenger service will be reinstated from Tuesday.Rajeesh had even bought sweets to celebrate the occasion..
