      Seat No. 1
      Total Fare: Rs 577.00 (Five Hundred and seventy seven) only

        The following person has refused to get up from the reserved seat for ladies in my journey to virajpet from mysore inspute of having seat in general category. And he also failed to get up from the seat when ladies where standing.. I am not a feminist but such persons can be harmful to the indian law as well. Kindly take action.. I warned him so many times and he behaved to me badly. Even the conductor and public in the bus had an indifferent behaviour inspite of this dirty attitude by him. The rights for women has to be preserved not done like this

            Today i was waiting at rto circle in mysore. As there was lunch break and there were no buses i waited for about 2hours and all of a sudden 4buses just moved without giving stop and im still standing right here in the bus stop. This shows bad management instead they could have done batches for lunch hour and made the buses more frequent. So I'm requesting you to bring any changes to improve the system.

                Sir/mam,
                Myself and two of my friends boarded a bus at kazhakootam today at around 8:05. We asked the conductor whether the bus will stop at infosys three times and he said yes. We gave rs.100 for ticket but he was asking for more and charged us rs.114, we we're confused because infosys is not so far then we saw the ticket and he has issued it to attingal.. Then we told him to give tickets to infosys, he said the bus won't go and told us to get down at some unknown road without giving our money back.
                "bus no - kl 15 a 525." and also the driver asked us to get down when we were asking for our money, since we did not get down he started the bus and stopped only in next stop. We had to walk for 3 kms from there to reach the main road!

                    When i was traveling from shimoga to udupi on[protected] by the government bus vehicle registration number ka 17f1735,

                    The operator (Conductor) in the vehicle also disturbed the passengers and created their own rules and communicated the words of disrespect to the passengers.

                    So that you would need to take disciplinary action on the employee.

                    Thanks and regards,

                      It was around 9pm and i was waiting for bus to mankuzhi. Then a fast passenger bus came after a long wait. I enquired the conductor to stop whether it stops at mankuzhi,. He then replied very rudly in a bad manner... And he was teasing me badly, telling everyone that "we should stop there as a girl is asking, we are asked to obey"... I was feeling very bad..

                      Am attaching bus details

                        Just because i travel using student pass does not give the conductors to insult me.
                        I take the bus daily from ksrtc bus stand mangalore.
                        But today the conductor said he cannot accept my pass saying it has wrong route.
                        When i told i travel daily by this route and no other conductor has denied my pass
                        He resolved to insult me
                        I think if this continues in ksrtc you are just going to lose your reputation and lose your passengers.
                        I know complaining is a waste as before i lodged a complaint there was no response

                              There is a bus conductor cum driver named as mohan naik in honnavar/kumta under sirsi depot in uttar kannada (Karnataka). He is taking photos of female passengers & college girls through his phone and he will edit the photos through photoshop tool. He will send those edited photos to passenger's husband or their brothers and asking money for it. There are lot of victims under his behavior. He is doing this quite long time. Please take necessary action. I just called depo manager both kumta/honnavar and informed them as well. His whatsapp no - +[protected] and he will use this no to circulate the edited photos and blackmail the female passengers. Please take the necessary action at the earliest.

                                  Dear sir,

                                  I am mailing this from in side bus no. Ka 01 f 9158, service from bangalore to thirukkoilur. Date : 11.03.2019; time 14:00hrs ; location athippally toll gate.

                                  This driver is driving so rash that it is putting the life of other road users and those inside the bus in danger. He is over speeding and overtaking from any direction at an uncontrollable speed. We had many near miss incidents on the way with many sudden breaking leading to tyre burning!

                                  This is really dangerous and unacceptable. Is he not trained to drive a passenger transport vehicle? Does he not aware that this mode of driving could kill any at any moment?

                                  Please take stringent action on this driver for the good of ksrtc and general public as he could kill anyone anytime.

                                  Regards,

                                  Pradeep

                                    Ksrtc bus no ka57f3597 bus conductor of volvo from mangalore to bangalore via hassan is very rude behaviour to women... My wife was suppose to travel from hassan to bangalore on 7/3/19. I had booked ladies seat of volvo bus around 4pm... 4pm bus had ac issues hence bus driver told us that he will arrange seat in next bus which was around 4.30pm but he did not respond after that... Than this above mentioned bus arrived around 4.45 pm and narrated story and asked for seat but he did not give to us though there was seat he gave to unreserved person and misbehaved with us and lastly gave the last row seat though front ladies seat was available...

                                      All the times packaged drinking water becomes bitter in taste after opening the bottle in 2 hours.
                                      First thing is packaged drinking water plastic bottle is of very low quality. So this brand bottle has to be stopped immediately as it is not good for health.
                                      Bisleri brand water much much better than this.

                                        I giridhar kamath travelling from panjim to bengaluru with pnr - j75424180 on 8/3/2019 bus no. Ka 57 f 1621. I have been travelling in this route since 6 months. I have observed mr. Prakash gowda on many occasions behaving very rudely. Today he has been very rude in talking to me. If such an attitude persists in ksrtc employees, the image of ksrtc is tarnished. I have been travelling in ksrtc for more than 30 years and i have never faced such a situation. I request you to kindly look into the matter. Regards, giridhar kamath, mob:[protected]
