At Washim bus stand (Dist. Washim), Maharashtra), I was waiting right from 12.15 PM for Washim-Nagpur Shivshahi Bus which had scheduled departure time of 12.30 PM on 10th January 2023 today. Shivshahi Bus having number MH06BW4341 arrived at 12.44, bus driver and conductor parked the bus and went somewhere. They came at 1.33 and bus departed at 1.35. Conductor behavior was extremely rude and arrogant.
Due to super fast express nature of Shivshahi, I skipped Two buses which was going towards Amravati/Karanja. Then at 12.44 Shivshahi having number MH06BW4341 arrived on Platform but conductor and Driver left the bus and went somewhere else. After waiting for half an hour, I inquired at enquiry counter about where did the conductor and driver went and why they were doing this delay. At 1.31 conductor came towards bus, I asked him the reason of delay, he suddenly lost his temper and said that if you have a problem of delay, lodge complaint on mine. As a response, I asked him to give complaint book, he refused to give and told me to go enquiry counter for lodging complaint. I went there, authority on counter told me to settle down the matter and asked conductor to not behave rude with passengers who are waiting since an hour for this shivshahi bus.
After that also conductor was uttering few abusing words which I couldn't hear properly.
As my son at Nagpur was ill and I need to go as early as possible to Nagpur from Washim, I am failing to reach on time at Nagpur due to this delay of bus. By considering this delay and bad service of MSRTC, I have taken ticket till Amravati only and I will get another bus for Nagpur from Amravati if possible.
Such delay in service due to stupidity of conductor and driver should not be tolerated. It is hampered overall reputation of MSRTC and the service to customers.
Kindly look into the matter and ask conductors and drivers to follow timings and avoid foolish behavior.
It ruins the overall reputation of MSRTC which is already degraded and tampered among common man.
Thanking you.
Yours faithfully
