RTC rental bus owners are facing quite a few issues
They have announced to go on strike from January 5 if their demands are not addressed immediately
This time it is the Maha Lakshmi scheme which is bothering the owners the most
Bus owners say that the scheme is causing overcrowding and potential mileage issues
Maha Lakshmi scheme offers free bus travel service in TSRTC for women in Telangana
Another significant concern is related to insurance coverage
They fear that if bus limits are exceeded and accidents happen, they might face severe financial losses due to insufficient coverage
The owners also didn’t take part in the recently held tender by TSRTC, calling for maintenance of rented buses
