Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation [Apsrtc] — city buses - neglected

Address:

Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh

I, v. Rama rao, residing in visakhapatnam city, on behalf of city bus goers,
Bring the following few lines for necessary & early action.

I am a private job holder, in visakhapatnam, since 28 years i am staying in visakhapatnam. I am completely dependent on apstc city buses for my duties. I don't know driving and so i don't have a vehicle. I used to go to duties
On citi bus only. Since last 2 years, not only me, hundreds of people are facing this problem. City buses were reduced to such an extent that in place
Of 3 buses, only 1 bus is coming. Previously, we used to wait for 5 to 10 minutes in bus stop. Now, we are forced to wait for 15 to 25 minutes.

I am city bus pass holder and i am paying rs. 800/- month. But, again i
Am (Not only me, 100s of people) compelled to go by share auto. People
Are gradually forgetting rtc city buses. Some people are purchasing 2
Wheelers and some are going by share autos.

Rtc, being a govt. Organization, naturally run under loss. I am paying rs.800/- per month. Why rtc, is giving number of ngos at a concessional rate. They are govt employees. Already have capacity to pay for their travel
Is it not the responsibility of the department to provide city buses in proper number? Apstrc is becoming very smart and using business tactics by
Using the city buses for hire to colleges. Also they will send some of the
City buses, if there is any meeting of minister or mla.

On behalf of the people (City bus goers), i request the authorities to look into
The matter seriously and see the welfare of the common man, by increasing the number of city buses, in visakhapatnam.
