Hi i m writing regarding driver behavior when i asked bus to stop @kit hassan circle in tiptur @2.00am. I have seen all government buses stop at kit college. When i asked whatever wordings he said is not acceptable. He said if something happens he will be responsible they will ask him. What that means he s sure that something will happen if only ladies travel in night. He would have said it's too late we will stop @bus stand. Instead of that whatever wordings he used is wrong. See only ladies traveling means as per convenient they stop bus? If i thought to take bus since bus stop s near my house, then they won't stop what will alternative arrangements i will make suddenly. Lf something happens that time can i held driver as responsible?
Either bus stops should be defined properly or they should inform before when we ask.in my cases both didn't happend and driver behavior s not correct.
Bus details:
Chintamani 022737 express ka40-f1450 kadur to tiptur

    Address: Bangalore, Karnataka

    I tried online booking for the airavath bus (Route: bangalore to shimoga bus
    Timmings: 7.30 am bus
    On date: 18-oct-2018)

    Amount got detected but ticket not booked. I did twice and lost 1100rs. Below are the transaction reference numbers.
    1. Ob33602950
    2. Ob33587777

    Ksrtc team not even receiving the call as well as no reply for mail. It’s about 15 working days, still i didn’t get my amount 1100 rs. Please do the needful sir.
    Hi Team,
    Conductors are not issuing any tickets for short distance between city bus stand to vibrant bus stop, 303 and 307 buses.
    Most of the people travel between metagalli to vikrant but due to short distance they don't give tickets so requesting u all to audit this route

        I've been using the volvo from byapanalli metro station to vydehi ttmc for quite a while but every time the ticket is charged from swami vivekananda metro and extra money has to be paid. The conductor when confronted gave 2 options pay extra or leave and get another bus. It's not just a single bus that does this, it's the common con committed by every conductor on that route
        Hi, there are very less busses from kollegala to Bangalore in early morning (4:30-5am) via maddur . Even though busses are allocated some times busses will come but not all the time. Hence people will be waiting in hopes it will come. Can you please look into it. If not every day can you provide more busses on Mondays ?
        Thank you

          Sir/ madam,

          I am lvr satya prasad working in hpcl in mangalore. On 28.10.2018, m at around 1330 hrs, there was karnataka sarige bus passing on mangalore hassan road near kadaba/ subramanya road turn overtakes a biker very rudely and rashly because of which my vehicle maruti baleno had to be taken off-road to road shoulder thereby vehicle undercarriage hits the road. I felt that ksrtc should arrange safety classes for improving the road safety.
          Unfortunately i could not capture vehicle number because our vehicle about met with an accident leaves only damage to vehcile.

          I urge your goodsleves to take necessary action on all those drivers.

              Respected sir/madam,
              Myself dr. Ashwin a passenger from mangalore to kasargod met with a situation when i was about to sit on a seat where something was written in kannada which i couldn't read. It was a ladies reserved seat told by the conductor.
              If it was written also in malayalam or at least in english language i could have read that. So i request you to take necessary action for mentioning the reservations in english language also in the interstate buses as the other state people won't be knowing kannada. As per my knowledge karnataka srtc is the best and ranked first government transport corporation in india.
              So expecting your action and reply as early as possible.
              Thanking you. Yours sincerely,
              Dr. Ashwin sabu

                        Sir,
                        I had reserved 2 ticket kozhikkode to bangalore depot in airavath on 22/10/[protected]@21:07 from kozhikode-bengaluru pnr no. J72802587, trip code 2107kzkbng, bus number: ka01 f 8523. Route was not mentioned in the ticket. We were standing in front of thamarassry police station which are usually pick up point. After received the scheduled message half an hour before from departure time i tried to inform that we will get in the bus from thamararassery. But the conductor said that the bus is going via vadakara, kannur which is not usually going 99% buses. Hence we couldn't catch the bus and lost lot of money and time. So i kindly request you to refund the ticket amount.

I was stranded in davanagere bus stand for 3 hours, as i requested the conductors to confirm that we will be made to alight in ksrtc bus stand, but a few of the conductors bluntly refused to do so, saying they will not go to bus stand, go to bangalore directly on bye pass road! We 2 aged persons find it so difficult to get down outside' the city limits and go home. Even tmk depot buses do like this! We will not get an auto after 10 pm kindly take some action to avoid the inconvenience to tmk passengers.

                            5 members of my family are traveling from kumbhakonam to bangalore.
                            Bus number:- rajahamsa ka57- f1804
                            And the conductor is very rude and has changed rupees 140 as luggage amount for 4 carton boxes weighing not more than 5 kgs each, and we have kept the same below our seats and haven't utilized any extra space.
                            Please consider my complaint and help us in justice.

                                    I had booked a ticket from kumta to bangalore in airavat club class on 21/10/2018.
                                    The bus was very bad condition.. The a/c was not working at all. When passengers asked for it conductor said that there is some problem with a/c and it gets cool in some time but after 1 hour he said that a/c is not working. It was so sophisticated that we were waiting when we are getting down from bus.

                                    I had booked in the last row seat. All the seats had push back facility, but last row had no push back option.
                                    I felt like i was travelling in ordinary bus by paying such a huge amount. I would request to refund the amount paid by me due to such a bad bus condition.

                                    Below i have attached my e-ticket
