AGARTALA, Aug 3 (TIWN): Bus drivers are roaming with fake charts of bus fare, whereas Transport Dept has clearly instructed that the Agartala-Shekerkot Rs. 9, Agartala Bishalgarh Rs. 15, Agartala-Charilam-19, Agartala-Bisramganj : 24, Agartala-Bagma-32, Agartala-Uadipur fare will be Rs. 37, Agartala-Matabari-41, Agartala Garjee-49, Agartala-Bircahndra Manu-46, Agartala-Sabroom-97.

However it can be mentioned here that as the Govt has given Kilometer wise chart, massive harassments of the passengers are going on in the state. If a person tries to give the appropriate fare then, the conductor uses also ‘slang’ languages against the passengers openly.

Even though Udaipur-Agartala fare is 37 rupees the buses keep 40 rupees without returning two rupees back.

Overloading of buses are turning 2 hours journey as 4 hours everyday.

For Bishalgarh passengers they are taking 20 to 25 rupees for Agartala to Bishalgarh and only till University also it’s the same fare.

Not only this, instead of taking 12 rupees, the auto drivers before taking passengers ask to give 15 rupees for Battala to Chandrapur route. At the same time  E-Rickshaw (Tomtom) also charging 15 rupees, even though they were not counted within fare hike.
