Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation [Msrtc] — shivneri driver did not stop at cbd belapur stop | |
I boarded shivneri bus at pune to get down at belapur navi mumbai. Fortunately, i know where the bus stops at cbd belapur. A few minutes before the arrival at cbd i go to the front row and just temporarily occupied a seat in the front row, hoping that as soon as the driver calls for the stop i will inform him that i am ready to get down. There was a partial hanging curtain or something above and by the time i could find where the bus is, he directly took the cbd flyover. He neither called the stop name nor took besides the flyover to stop at cbd. By then it was too late and it would have been risky to get down at the middle of the highway. So i got down at vashi and returned by panvel local to belapur. Sad part is that the driver was busy speaking to someone on headphones and mobile. It was his duty to stop the bus mandatorily at the bus stop but instead assuming that there are no passengers he simply took the flyover. Also what if there were first time passengers visiting mumbai? They would have had no idea where to get down unless driver calls for the stop name? Shivneri is government initiative and a government servant has made a mistake. I fine him rs 500. I know msrtc will not entertain my claim but they are a government organization and their servants get salary from my incometax. As a result by paying incometax less by rs 500 this year i am going to recover this amount. Was this information helpful? | |
