I was travelling from tiruvannamalai to Bangalore. I entered a ksrtc bus as I was travelling alone at 10.00 pm and had to reach majestic and catch bus to hubballi. I asked for a seat next to a lady passenger. Though there were ladies seats vacant, they were all given to gents, each of them sitting occupying the whole of three seats. I would not dare sit next to them as i felt uncomfortble and had faced misbehaviour by male passengers.
Though i asked for a seat next to a lady, the conductor did not dare empty the ladies seat occupied by male passengers. I was finally offered the seat of the conductor.
It.pains me that ladies are not receiving the minimum safety that surely has led to male predominance.
Females are more sensitive and cannot move along like men atleast in such circumstances.
Will this mge be given importance and safegaurd women ? This is a question tp all males.. will you allow your wife or daughter sit next to a stranger male under such circumstances????

    Hello, I'm a regular traveller from Puttur to Mangalore and I have to travel to Mangalore after office hours. But there are no busses to Mangalore between 18:20 and 19:00. Can imagine the rushing crowd when the bus arrives at 19:00? Its a tragic situation that between these 2 popular places there are no busses during that time and for regular office workers to wait for 40 minutes after their hectic work, can you imagine the patience it requires?
    So I hope the department looks into this issue and handles it with the solution it requires.

      Today I booked bus ticket for my mother and by mistake I had given my mobile number for OTP. I booked ticket in the name of my mother and I sent booking confirmation message to her mobile. She has aadhar card for for her identification. When bus came to our stop for pickup, conductor denied her to claim bus and used very bad words in local language even for me and thrown my mother's bags. I have mentioned below journey details here for your reference. Kindly take action on him and I need to know the status of this issue.
      He need to apologise with my mother and me.

        I am travelling from Ernakulam to Bangalore. I booked ladies seat no.11 on 5 Aug, 2023. The passenger who sat behind me was completely drunken and not in consciousness. It was difficult to sit infront of him the drinks smell and sometimes he put hand on my seat. I informed conductor. He even didn't change his seat. And he asked me to sit for sometime and once other passenger leaves he will provide that seat. Please don't allow drunkens behind the ladies seat. It's very difficult to travel. A kind of harrasment against women I felt.

          Ksrtc siddapur (uttara kannada). The person in toilet asking 2rs/5rs for using men's urinals. I denied to give amount so he is talking rudely to me and asking to clean the urinals for not paying 2rs. I have already made complaint to bus stand controller(ksrtc). In front of them also ge is talking rudely and asking for money from passengers. Is this is the way of maintenance??

            I had been Majestic Bus Stop, where I wanted buy a Water Bottle. Where the shopkeeper charged me Rs. 25/- for 1ltr Bottle. Which is actually Rs. 20/- as prescribed on the Bottle. SHOP NO: 2A3 BESIDE Kadamba Veg Hotel. WHICH IS not fair, Moreover the cost of the other things are also high.

                When I was traveling from Mysore to chamarajanagar at 1 pm I gave rs.100/- for the ticket but he refused to give the ticket and forcing to pay exact ticket amount of 70/- but he is having a so much of change in his hand(10/- &20) but he was not ready to give the change so requesting to take necessary action regarding this and help the passenger from this type of harassment.

                                  I used to travel from Bengaluru to sulya in KSRTC Airavatha. But fare of the travel is around 800-920Rs. But if i Book till madikeri from Bengaluru then price will be 500-640Rs for the same bus. They are charging around 300rs extra for 45 km. And if i book same airavatha from madikeri to sulya then price will be around 140Rs. This double charging is looks unfair.

I asked so many times to stop the bus but they didn't give stop. After that I Called ksrtc helpline also they also taken careless for that one.
                                    If here also I didn't get the justice, I Will move further this incident in higher authorities.

                                        Me and my friend was travelling from manglore to udupi KSRTC bus KA-31F-1566 on 18-6-23 at 2.40 pm bus .We are residing in udupi manipal since 3 years.The conductor charged us 140 rupees.When we showed adhaar card he said as that was made from kerala we are not applicable for free tickets even tough we are travelling in karnataka. As per our knowledge adhaar card is based on India not any specific state .If it's free for ladies then why did they charge us .Very disappointing behaviour from the ksrtc conductor.
