Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation [KSRTC] Complaints & Reviews

I am from sira - 572137 and frequently travel to bangalore. It is really hard to get a bus to bangalore and tumkur on monday mornings. 100s of students travel every day but still bus facility is so bad that students have to miss classes sometimes exams. Controller is rude and receive no response when asked about any service.

This improper and rude behavior of ksrtc sira bus stop controller is making everyone to suffer and especially students. Students have done many strikes but no results ☹️. There is no proper person to whom people can reach out to. Looking for proper action from you!.

Thanks in advance!

Bus number - f4129 bus route from bangalore - kasargod (Non ac sleeper)
Seating layout changed...19 seat number while booking was 2nd row upper berth. While boarding, the conductor pointed out to a seat which was 1st row and was already occupied by another person. The conductor misbehaved and was not courteous to inform passengers the seat numbers have changed.
We as customers pick a a seat on various needs, be it a senior citizen or a single lady and with this number changes at the time of boarding, makes it inconvenient to the passengers.. For example if alloted a double seat for a single lady (Where is the safety??) or making a child to sleep in a single seat separately in case of a mother and child travelling together...
This is not right. When you take the money, please value the customer and their needs and comfort has to be the first priority. Ksrtc needs to keep a check.

Non working of ac in ksrtc volvo bus from hassan to bangalore on 7.2.2020 by ka 01 f 8531 left hassan bus stand with 20 passengers. Passengers started vomitting, some with headache, nausia feeling. The driver stopped the vehicle to do with his limited knowledge, but couldn't succeed. This is the maintenance of our corporation vehicles. It is a very horrible journey we were undergoing, then the driver drove the bus with front door opened. With hefty charges paying we have to go with traumatic journey. There are no vomitting bags nor water provided in the bus. Kindly reimburse back my amount paid.

I was sitting window side. Passenger sitting next to me slided the glass to feel air flow. After that i was just touched the glass and the broke into pieces. It hurt my palm. There was no blood.
Driver straightaway start bursting on me with rude manner. Accusing me for the broken glass. He harassed me saying pay 500 rupees or let's go police station. I dint mind going to police station because i dint do it.

Main thing this driver dose'nt have manner to check what happen. Dint even bothered to check if anything happened to my hand.

Please take action against this. His eruptive behaviour. And least bothered to care what exactly happen

I always travel from bangalore to chennai every friday by ksrtc bus code :2045bngchn. Recently have found out that bus has been removed from the booking app and the service is not available. So please bring back that service as it is causing great inconvenience since that bus goes through marathahalli where i stay. Since it's unavailable i have to travel all the way to electronic city to catch bus.

Hi sir,

Bus number : ka 17 f 1957
Time : 2:20 pm at davanagere
Bus route : bng to shivmogga
Still that bus is travelling towards shivamogga.

Me, my 9 month old baby along with my mother got into bus at davanagere. We wanted to get down in harihara.

As soon as we got into bus, i paid ₹100 for 2 tickets (Actual price for 2 tickets is ₹30). He started shouting at me saying he will take bus to side, and we must get down there itself. I was shocked. On questioning he says he doesn't have change to pay. He behaved so rudely.

That was so painful for us. He had to collect ticket from whole bus, he could have waited till everyone gave amount or atleast he could have said that he doesn't have change. He directly asked us to get down the bus that too when we are carrying baby. We said him not to give any change initially. Later we managed to pay ₹30 some how and managed to travel.

He also said he got instructions that if travellers are not paying change, they should be made to get down the bus. Is this true??

We were carrying baby. He behaved without any humanity.
Please respond to our pain by taking necessary actions immediately.

Bengaluru to tumakuru road route ksrtc buses regularly going to basaveshwara satellite bus terminal, peenya, but there is no use for public, this is waste of time, waste of fuel, because no one get in or get down in that bus in terminal. It is strain for passengers, driver and conductor also.
These buses are going only tc entry purpose so please check and stop buses going there bus stop from tumakuru main road.

Today on 30th january i was travelling from mysuru to koppa, i noticed that many students were standing on the road for buses, but their was heavy rush in the bus so driver couldn't stop the bus. Students stopped the bus for a while and started quarreling. So sir/mam please send another 2 buses in k. R. Nagar to holenarasipura road. Students have to reach their college by time.
I request u to reply to my message.

Thanking you

It is regrettable to note that the bus fecility between channapatn and honnayakanahalli which hosts ranikittur channamma residential high schoolschool, morargidesai minority high school and government high schoolthere is no bus fecility between 11.50 am and 1.30 pm. This irregularity has to be set right by introducing schedules at least one bus for every half an hour to help students and customers

Ksrtc bus limited stop state bank to puttur. Timings :6.10 evening. Bus reg no. Ka 21 f 0102. The bus conductor in an urgency left children's of family where as pickuped only two ladies of that family when travelling from statebank to puttur. Even after shouting he travelled and at another stop they get down. Please take action against conductors irresponsibility behaviour.

I traveled recently in Karnataka ksrtc bus, from ernakulam to Iritty. But my bus stop is after iritty, so I asked to conductor whether there is stop in Madathil or not. He want me to give Rs 30 extra from actual ticket to stop there. So I give hime the demanded rupees.
But when the bus reached in Madathil conductor didn’t here me, he acting like very cruel. He drop me in another stop, that’s very far from my location. That’s happened in 3AM in the morning and driver is smoking while driving. I didn’t get any vehicle and I afraid about thieves.
Please do the needful Sir. I am attaching the ticket copy along with this complaint.
Thank you.

My brother had booked a ticket from lingusgur to bangalore @lingusgur ksrtc counter (21st jan 2020 09.15 pm bus), he had lost the ticket printout but had the m-ticket with me. Before boarding the bus (15 mins) when to spoke to the person of in-charge at the ksrtc counter and the bus conductor both said that we have to pay again and book ticket for the same seat since there is no other option. Where as we have an option of guest user to login and take another print by giving the pnr number, this option was not known to the person of in-charge at the counter nor the conductor. Kindly refund 740 rs and please educate people properly so that they give correct guidance to the customer.

We understand that we asked them just 15 mins before departure, if we had got the right info at right time we would have logged in as guest user and got the print out by ourselves and it would have saved us 740 rs. It is important that the person of in-charge should guide the customer in the right way.

We need refund of 740 rs and please guide the customer in the right way.

On 18th january, the above mentioned bus almost hit my car in gonikoppa town as he was charging madly honking loudly inside the town.' the driver herein shown in the picture, drives very rashly, especially within the town limits, not taking care of other smaller vehicles and pedestrians. When we confronted him, he says thats how he will drive!
Request ksrtc to warn him before he kills some one!

The buses from kumbakonam to mysuru buses are not following the time and they are always late and not arriving at the proper time if we call for the information to the contact provided all of them are responding and telling not to contact again and many of them are not picking up the phone calls and proper responding is not there from the driver team. Also if possible add few more buses from trichy so that it would be convenient.
