Government is committed to free bus travel for women: Kolusu Parthasarathy

Eluru : Information & Public Relations and Housing Minister Kolusu Parthasarathy has said the government is finalising procedures to launch the scheme of free travel in RTC buses for women in the State.

He flagged off two new bus services between Nuzvid and Bengaluru at Nuzvid bus depot on Friday.

On this occasion, he said that a decision will be taken on when to start the scheme. The free travel scheme for women in RTC buses will definitely be implemented, he said.

It may be mentioned here that the TDP promised in the election manifesto to introduce the scheme of free bus travel for women.
