Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation [BMTC] — Offensive behaviour of a bus conductor towards a female passenger

Address:

560024

Today (19/7/2016) morning i was travelling by bmtc volvo vajra bus 500 df which started from hebbal at 8.30 am towards itpl.
Bus no: ka01fa2158
Tknno: 12536
Ticket no :34

The bus conductor while giving tickets to passengers was leaning too much onto me. I then requested him to please stand aside. From that time on he started verbally abusing me. The bus did not stop at the bus stop in spite of me requesting the driver to stop. It is only when i started raising voice that the bus stopped.

This behavior by the bus conductor and the driver is truly unacceptable. Also if there is some helpline number available for women passengers, it will help in our safety.

Please take some action against the bus conductor and the driver so that such offensive behavior towards female passengers come to an end. I also want to know what are the best options we have to safeguard ourselves when such an incident occurs.

Rashmi.
