Bmtc — Volvo 500D KA 57F41 bus conductor misbehaving and threatening lady passengers

Bangalore, Karnataka

Hi, I boraded my bus from New horizon college around 7.15pm in BMTC 500D volvo bus number KA 57F41 to kempapura ring road. I stood up and went near the door 2min before my stop and I noticed that teh driver did not give a stop in the Bus stop (Kempapura stop), when asked the conductor and the driver to stop, the conductor mocked at me saying "We asked if anyone wants to get down that time you did not respond and now we cannot give a stop, get down at next stop". Now, tell me how will I understand if he was talking to driver or to passengers, in a crowded noisy bus and me sitting in one of the back seats how am I suppose to listen to this and respond. So, is it that we will have to raise our hand before every stops saying we have to get down, we have to get down. Plus, I think if a passenger is getting down or not, the driver has to stop in every bus stop. Also, while getting down when I was noting the bus number, the conductor threatened me showing actions meaning he will take care of me next time. I'm really scared to get into buses with such drivers and conductor. Kindly warn them. -- Geethu

An action should be taken on such kind of issues. It is a public transport not the private vehicle and they are public servants. It is not right to behave like this with female passengers and also they should be aware of the timings. In fact they should be kind enough in stopping in the right place. They are not doing any social service instead they are paid for it. It is better to be aware that your paid for this job.

Kindly provide a good service

Every Volvo bus has to be equipped with GPS and CCTV cameras to capture such incidents. The BMTC employees are not bothered because whatever they do no one is punishing them because of no such proofs. They also speed up and compete with other buses to reach first. Where is the safety of the commuters ??
