    Address: Yeshawanthapura near metro super market

    Today i was travelling to MALLESHWARAM a ksrtc bus driver came and hit the standing in the traffic car near goraguntepalya metro station at 3:28pm. He was talking very rudely with us though it was his fault. The Bus licence no is KA 01 F 9287. This is an offensive act of negligible driving under section 279 of the indian penal code 1860.I would request you to enquiry this incident as early as possible.

      Sir/Madam,

      I stay at Hosur and study in Dairy circle. I availed for student pass in KSRTC and however I feel it is of no use. Conductors of KSRTC are not really fond of pass holding students. My classes end at 4 and it takes more than 1.5 hours to travel back. There is only one bus available for every 30 minutes. However even those buses does not stop at my stage even after waving our hands. They do not even slow down the bus. If the buses are not going to stop at the stages then what is the purpose of issuing passes. Everyday just because they do not stop the bus, I have to wait for another hour to take a bus. I request you to kindly inform the buses to stop out of courtesy at least after people waving their hands.

        You need to increase the speed of Volvo Buses to 90 kms as the current speed of 80 KMPH is too less and quite boring as it takes too much time, Many co passengers during my travel from Chennai to Bangalore or Bangalore Pune have mentioned this which many a time they chose a private bus of repute over KSRTC. Many videos of recent Dream class Utsav on Youtube - Bangalore Hyderabad have expressed this. Even your own driver complains of the low speeds. Trust you will take this up immediately!
        Also the current highways are far better than it was ! Except some stretches in Union Minister Prahalad Joshi's district Hubli and Dharwad bye pass, Let me not speak about Shiradi ghats right from Hassan to Gundya!! Only Gods can help. Karnataka ki jai ho and our politicians!

          The second thing was the seat handle was not IN good state it was broken to be slippery And the route I was travelling was charmadi ghat hence ghat section it was very slippery to me and skipped many times I asked the conductor to change the seating with one vacant seat but he told he need to sleep in that seat and refused
          I don't know we pay a big amount for travelling in ksrtc and their is so many issues with seating arrangement and the person conductor is like I am not related to any thing happening inside bus he needs to sleep well very bad experience with KSRTC

            Conductor is not accepting currency notes

            I was traveling with my family from siruguppa to bellary. Below mentioned bus conductor was behaving rudely in accepting currency notes which was torn a bit. I was carrying only one 100rs note and informed the same but conductor was accepting the note and ask us to depart from the vehicle. Let me know that if there is any separate rules & regulations have been passed to accept the notes? Conductor is telling that it's his own wish/choice...

            Address: S-1, SHRAVANTHI CRYSTAL, 10th Cross, SARAKKI MAIN road, Ist Phase, J P Nagar Bangalore -560078

            PNR No J92280540
            Reference no OB54558242 Transaction dated 24/02/2023

            With reference to the above, I hereby furnish the following facts.

            1. I purchased e-tickets through your KSRTC AWATAR Online booking on 24/02/2023 for my journey from Bangalore to KUNDAPURA on 28/02/2023 and back from KUNDAPURA to Bangalore journey
            on 01/03/2023.

            2. While boarding for tripcode 1923CDPBNG on 01/03/2023 at Kundapura Bus stand Bus no KA19F3517, the conductor, after verifying my identity card, refused to allow me to board the bus as the passenger name in the ticket was wrongly retrieved by the system as 'Shravanthi Crystal ' which was my apartment name.

            3. The authorities at kundapura talked to their officials at Bangalore and agreed to take me against paying cash Rs 890/- for the same seat no 10 and asked me to submit claim for refund along with copy of ticket as advised by their Bangalore office.

            4. Since I have paid twice for the same tripcode 1923CDPBNG, same journey date 01/03/2023, same seat no 10 from KUNDAPURA to Bangalore, I request you to refund Rs 890/- twice paid at the earliest and oblige.

            5. I am enclosing copy of cash ticket dated 01/03/2023 for Rs 890/- and UPI transaction details (UPI Tran ID[protected] dated 24/02/2023 for Rs 895/-.

            6. There was system error while retrieving passenger name when I clicked my mobile no displayed by the system which I admittedly failed to notice.

            7. While I am willing to provide any proof to support genuineness of my claim, I am sure, reputed organisation like you, would not like to profit out of system error and by twice charging for the same journey.

            8. I also request you to rectify system error, if any, so that passenger is not inconvenienced in future due to the same.

            Therefore, kindly refund Rs 890/- excess paid amount at the earliest.

                I have a complaint regarding driver of the bus with registration number KA09F4728 which heads towards gonikopalu to madikeri via ammathi murnad around 3.45pm bus will start from Gonikopalu and as per driver he says he stops only bus shelters and in any other places he will not stop to pickup or drop the passengers and the same thing happened to us on 24th Feb 2023 we two ladies where waiting for the bus and the bus arrived on time at hosur jedi temple road bus stop we signalled with our hand to stop the bus to pick up us bus the bus moved with very high speed refusing to stop with no other option we had to catch the same bus because it was the last bus in that route to reach murnad latter we decided to catch the same bus with our Jeep from nearby town and we successfull to overtake the bus after 1km and I signalled to stop the bus driver to stop the bus pick up the passenger but again he overtook us and moved with very high speed latter we decided to go Ammathi which is around 3km and catch the bus and at ammathi bus stand I questioned the bus driver for not stopping the bus to pick the passengers driver was rude on me and he answered me we cannot stop the bus at every road to pick you people come and stand at the nearest shelters and their is only 4bus shelters from gonikopalu to ammathi around 12km route and as per me better to walk to nearby town than to walk to nearby bus shelter because both are of equal distance and requested the driver not to create nonsense without stopping the bus many age old people and labourers are depending on the last bus and if you don't stop it will create trouble but he was not ready to listen
                Latter while paying bus ticket amount that's from ammathi to murnad again conductor told us we don't enter murnad bus stand we directly turn towards madikeri road from murnad again argument started and finally agreed to go murnad bus stop.
                And now I have a question do we need to wait in the bus shelters only and if the answer is yes then no use of bus in that route for around 3km their is one bus stop
                And it's a rural road usually have their houses around 1-2km inside from main road and it will definitely difficult to reach the main roads and again if the last bus won't stop that to in emergency situation what shall we passengers do
                And this is happened many time and many time we have warned the driver not to repeat this in this route because it's a rural road .

                Kindly take this matter seriously and please change the driver and conductor for this route and please warn them not to repeat the same and serve the passenger better because of such indecent driver the name of KSRTC will spoil
                I think you can understand the issue

                      KSRTC bus stand public toilet demanding Rs.10 per person with no hygiene

                      Address: Chikmagalur KSRTC bus stand

                      Dear Sir/Madam,
                      Today(26/02/2023) I happened use Chikmagalur KSRTC bus stand public toilet. While entering a ladies toilet room a man sitting in a chair stopped me and asked to pay Rs.10(for urinal). I paid but toilet rooms were disgusting and very unhygienic.
                      When a man demanded Rs.10 per person and that too for public toilet, I thought it should be very well maintained and hygienic. It is just some random people making money....

He is telling me to parcel the food at 10.40 pm .How can female passager can go out of the bus stand for the parcel that too during closing time of all hotels. Otherwise all other KSRTC buses travel for 12 hour long duration would not stop the bus for dinner. Please do consider this issue. Thank you
