Private bus operators in the State, under the aegis of the Kerala State Private Bus Operators Federation, will take out a march to the Secretariat on October 14, demanding measures to protect the private bus industry in the wake of the State government’s Priyadarshini free travel scheme.
The operators said the scheme had been implemented without adequate safeguards for private bus services, pushing them into a severe financial crisis. With operating expenses rising and earnings proving insufficient to meet costs, they said the absence of appropriate government intervention had further aggravated their difficulties.
