Sir,

Im balachandra pawase from Hubli city, Dharwad (Dist). I want to complaint against the KSRTC Hubli dharwad local bus service.

Sir ,

I booked a Ticket to travel to chennai from Bangalore. The ticket indicates clearly that I have booked my ticket in KSRTC, but the KSRTC bus which was suppose to depart at 19:51 was no where to be seen in the vicinity. When the time passed. The person at enquiry counter had told me that the bus is NWKRTC, which I should have boarded and its a yellow colored bus. How a passenger would know a NWKRTC and KSRTC are the same. The bus was also coming from Belgaum, the starting point is not bangalore as mentioned in the Ticket. I lost 779/= Rs.


Thanks & regards,
Ravi

Hi,

My name is Pooja. I am regularly ttravelling in bangalore taking KSRTC bus route number 276 from ITI bus stop (New Bell Road) to Sadashivanagar police station. Today I got into the bus number KA-01 F 4441 at around 8.30 am. Since my stop was just the one after the next stop so intentionally I was the last passenger to get into the bus. So when I got into the bus then driver without any warning closed the door and my bag got stuck into the door, where it very well could be my arm. When I pointed this out to conductor then he instead shouted at me saying you have eyes so you should look at this and not even a single time he agreed that at this moment it was his responsibility to warn the passengers before closing the door, well it was well crowded bus and you can't close the door on someone, or he should atleast look carefully before doing so. I think government should take an action to guideline the drivers and conductors of these KSRTC buses to behave properly with the passengers. I have regularly seeing such incident of misconduct everyday in these buses and no wonder why all o[censored]s would prefer private vehicles instead o[censored]sing public services and adding more to pollution and traffic. I also urge other people to be together on such instance and let these rude drivers and conductors know that we care of each other and their this misbehavior would not be acceptable.

Regards

I have travelled from Bangalore to Dharwad on Jan 4 2013, I have booked Ladies seat number 11 since I was travelling alone from Bangalore to Dharwad on Jan 4 2013 This was night journey from Bangalore to Dharwad.

I have booked the bus online from KSRTC site. The seats 11 and 12 are allocated to the ladies. I have booked seat number 11 which is Ladies seat.
When I entered the bus in Majestic(KemepeGouda Busstand), there...

The service from Shanthinagar stand to Palghat ( volvo multi axle semi -sleeper) starting at 22.02 , with number KA 01 F 9355 , reached the destination 3 hours late. The driver was very inexperienced and hardly saw driving in top gears. Even the local buses were overtaking !!! It seems like driver is not used ti with such heavy vehicles. ksrtc.in site displayed the arrival time as 5.15 hrs and it reached 3 hrs late. please be concious while allocating drivers for long journeys.

KSRTC Airavat Tirupati to Bangalore -No pick up because bus did not enter bus stand, and directly went from outside only.

I booked the ticket for Amt Rs. 1200 in KSRTC Airavat from Tirupati to KBS (Bangalore) but was not picked up.

Pick up point : Platform no.22

We were guided by the KSRTC helpdesk at Tirupati bus stand that our bus will arrive at platform 22. We waited at platform 22 from 23:15pm .The bus did not turned up.When i called to ksrtc, they just keep saying that the bus will come.Even though another airavat bus came at 23:30, when we told them and showed the ticket to the conductor. They just said it's 23:48 bus and it's on the way. We checked all other buses also.
We still waited from late night 23:15.to next morning 02:00 am but there was no airavat bus.
We enquired many times at the helpdesk, but nobody knows anything.
Finally we called up call centre& driver told bus already left and you can complain to whom u want, there will be no action.
KSRTC helpdesk is only misguiding and we had to spend money again on tickets.
If dept. is so incompetent, u should inform us when we purchase tickets and not by cheating customers like us.

Please refund the entire amount ASAP

Hi
It is a complaint again the shop In shanthinagar bus stop, the second shop in platform 1 . (shop has no name but running by mangalapuram poeple, shop next to hpmc juice stall)
after drinking a juice and buying a biscuit they charged me 80 rupees.
The biscuit charge is just 22 as mrp. But they charge 30 rupees.
Shop keeper refused to give me change offering filthy chocolates.
It is really a day time roberry happening in there.
Really need some authorized person to stop this day time theft.

Daily 1000nds of people travel to home town from this location.

I request to take actions so that we will have justice.

The conductor of the bus KL-15 7346 on the date 18-12-12 , 8.30 pm trip from kazhakkutam to VikasBavan misbehaved to me in front of all the people in the bus. He was shouting at me by telling that I have waved my hands to stop the bus. Some times the buses wont stop in the bus stop if we don't wave hands. Even though i did a harmless thing he insulted me. Please take action towards him for insulting woman in public.

Dear Sir,
Myself N Maruti Rao, resident of Belgaum, booked e- ticket for Belgaum to Bellary (6th Dec. 2012, seat number 18, Raj Hansa) and back journey from Bellary to Belgaum (7th Dec. 2012, seat number 19, Raj Hansa) and made payment through SBI internet banking option given by KSRTC. The transaction was successfully completed I have received reference number from SBI about confirmation of payment (IGE5280869). But, the tickets were not available for download and I have not received any confirmation from KSRTC about booking. I went to Belgaum Bus stand around 9.30pm and enquired about my reservation in the reservation counter. The in-charge of reservation section told that tickets were not booked in my name. So, I had purchased tickets of Raj Hansa for Bellary by paying Rs.400/-. Sir, the bus condition was so horrible that there were no headlights for the bus and bus was under repairing condition. In mid night around 3.00pm commuters had asked driver to stop the bus and make alternative arrangement and they tried to contact the Belgaum control office but in vain. However, around 4.00pm they were able to contact and the control office in-charge had apologized for inconvenience and promised to make alternative arrangement in Koppal but no arrangement were made in Koppal nor bus was repaired. The bus reached Hospet at 7.00am (3 hours late) and conductor had requested us to catch red bus ( we have paid for Raj Hansa) which is going from Hospet to Bellary and we reached Bellary at 930pm. I have not expected such poor quality of service from KSRTC which has bagged best transport award please look into the matter and do the needful. I hereby attaching the transaction details as well copies of correspondence between me and KSRTC ([protected]@ksrtc.org)

Very bad behaviour from conductors in BMTC bus. The bus I travelled was from whitefield to hopfarm. I boarded the bus at around 10.30 am. Todaythe conductor refused to pay me balance and used very uncultured language while asking for balance. At last, after begging for balance, he gave the balance, and he asked me to "GET OUT" in very harsh and impolite language. After I got out he manhandled me and strangled my neck trying to pull me back to the bus, for saying that I will report the incident. He asked me to speak in kannada and when I said I do not know kannada, he said, then "why am I coming to bangalore".
This is not an isolated incident.
If KSRTC cannot employ well mannered bus conductors and drivers, its a shame on the company.. pitiable. And for sure, this incident will be taken up very seriously and is a bad name for KSRTC.

Dear Sir/Madam,

Am Ramesh residing in Porur, chennai.

Would like to bring to your notice that myself and my father in law travelled in KSRTC
From pamba to chenganur and the bus stopped in waha for resting. We got down to get
Refreshed and came to understand that within few minutes the bust left us and went with
Our baggages. I had to get 2 other buses to reach Chenganoor and had to call and go
Through lot of people to get my luggage. I spoke to Mr. Babu who was working with KSRTC
For 15 yrs as he mentioned and he said to get the luggage from info centre. From waha to
Chenganoor, we had to travel in 2 Buses in standing after paying for our travel. Hope u will not find it fair and take perfect action on the staff who were irresponsible.

FYI: The staff in info center of Chenganur said the there were total of 6 passengers left by this staffs in this travel.
