[Resolved] Bmtc — Ticket Checker of BMTC

Bangalore, Karnataka

My name is Dr. Madhav Rao. I am working as an Assistant Professor in a top institution in Bangalore. I normally take BMTC bus from BTM water tank to silkboard and my wife goes to Ecospace. Today we took BMTC bus 500A (double bus) at 8 AM in the morning from BTM water tank stop. The conductor (name: Mr. Shiva Kempegowda) was issuing tickets to others in the back. In the next stop (Udupi Garden Signal) the ticket checker (name Mr. Sriram) boarded the bus and was checking the tickets. We politely told him that the conductor could not issue us a ticket, because we just boarded the bus and we haven't crossed a stop. However the ticket checker started arguing with me and my wife. He did not even listen to other passengers who had witnessed the incident. The ticket checker forced us to pay Rs. 300/- for no faults of ours. Instead he was insulting a professor infront of the whole BUS crowd. I would like you to take strict action against the officer (Mr. Sriram) who was doing a mugging act and provide me compensation of the whole amount and additional insulted charges.
Thanks and I will be waiting for your reply and action. We will be giving a police complaint as well. I urge you to support us and remove some of the money-minded staff in BMTC so as to make the BMTC run smoothly.

BMTC — Issue of tickets

Hi All,

I travel be BMTC bus daily from Hebbal to ITPL. Today I got into Bus No.KA-01, FA-773, Route No.304 M, from Mahadevapura to ITPL. The bus fare from Mahadevapura to ITPL is 10/- Rs. But, the conductor gave 7/- Rs. ticket and did not gave the change, when I asked about it, he told, it is 10/-Rs, then when I asked ,why have you given 7/- Rs.ticket he did not speak and went behind. I'm observing this many days, he's doing the same thing to many passengers, when they ask also he shouts and behaves very rude.

Here, passengers are not losing any thing, but BMTC is losing the profit.As said above, I gave 10/- Rs but got the ticket of 7/-Rs, so, conductor got 3 /-Rs for himself and he'll show 7 /- Rs to BMTC.

Please take necessary actions on the said route conductor.

Regards,
Vidya

This happened to me long back in 2008 actually the conductor and the ticket checker were jointly part of the mugging he issued a ticket which was torn and then from next stop ticket checker came in and demanded money, which i dint give and they were yelling bad words in kannada took me in a taxi and we traveled to a police station from where they disappeared i some how managed to escape the scene, worst traumatic experience.
