Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation [Msrtc] — Asiad service from Pune to Mumbai

Address:Pune, Maharashtra, 400071
Website:MSRTC transport

I had an internship for two months in Pune. Being a Mumbai resident, I choose to travel by Asiad service provided by MSRTC from Pune Juction to Mumbai every Saturday.
I would like to highlight the fact that the service provided is highly disappointing.
It was 1st of October Saturday and I wished to catch a 3.30 or 3.45 asiad bus from pune junction depot.
It was an average rainy weather which had just started an hour before.
when I reached at the depot at about 3.15 I was told that the bus would come in a short time.
When it was about 3.40 I went and inquired about the bus since the bus had still not arrived .
I was told by the ticket giver at the counter that the bus will come in a short while as the bus must have stuck up in traffic.
It was the about 4.10 still the bus was not there.
the person at the counter only gave one answer that the bus is stuck in the traffic.
the public then started shouting a screaming as there as no bus service for more than an hour.
the head in the ticket section then called up and asked to arrange for the bus
the bus came in at about 4.35 but the bus which was called was not is a good condition and it broke down as soon as it arrived in the depot.
Hence even after waiting for about an hour we had to wait till another bus is asked for.
The final bus arrived and we left at 5pm after waition for entire 2hours by many passangers.
such heartrending service is provided by the MSRTC asiad service
To be very definite and precise the Shivneri volvo service was not disrupted due to rains and were continuously arriving and departing. Only the asiad was stuck in traffic not the volvo bus. I really dont understand how thiss could be possible.

this was not only one case
on the next weekend I had to catch the regular 5.30pm bus
even this bus arrival timings were not known by the person at the ticket counter. It was about to be 6pm still the bus had not arrived.
I finally had to leave by Shivneri shelling out double the amount of money.
I didnt had patience to wait for the regular asiad bus since there was again an uncertainty about the bus's arrival and my past week's bad experience.
