[Resolved]  Bmtc — Asks for a BMTC id for 1400(friendly pass) which needs only a Govt ID, and says "get out of the bus"

Address:

Bangalore, Karnataka

Hi,

This is in reference to the uncivilized behavior by the CONDUCTOR of 25E(KA 01 F 3362) bus from delmia circle to jayanagar.

I hold a pass of BMTC vajra FRIENDLY PASS(Rs 1400/-).
This conductor in a rash manner asks me for BMTC id. I kept explaining him that, this is a 1400 friendly pass which doesn't need a BMTC id, i showed him my DL, PAN card and asked him to verify.But, he simply would not listen to me. He has literally pushed me out of the bus.

With whatever little kannada i know, I kept telling him, (idhu 1400 pass, BMTC id beda), he would simply repeat, get down, getdown.I asked him to refer to any other customers.

This is not for the first time it had happened.The same bus conductor(i don't know about others) has repeatedly behaved like this many of the passengers.I would have to say, this leaves a very bad impression on BMTC.

1. Vajra Monthly (one calender month) Passes*: Available on-board Vajra Bus Services

a) Vajra Monthly Gold Pass: Rs 1350/- (w.e.f. July, 2010)
Requires a BMTC ID** Validation

b) Vajra Monthly Friendly Pass: w.e.f. July, 2010 Rs 1400/- (w.e.f. July, 2010)
Requires any Govt. Agency issued ID*** Validation


Someone who pays 1400 per month and gets denied to be on board by the uncivilized bus conductors like this, it is really frustrating and annoying.

I urge you to take some serious action on this and the behavior of this kind of conductors put the BMTC's reputation at stake.

Regards,
Ajit.
