Private Bus — drink and drive

Address:

443001

I am writing to inform you of the completely inappropriate behavior of one of your bus drivers. I was not able to obtain his name, but i believe he will be easily identifiable from the following information.

On the evening of monday, march 24th, i have booked my ticket from buldana to pune from reb bus, # tn4p57913146, pnr ts[protected]wwvs/193750/rama travels - yukta travels,
Departure from buladana @ 8.30 pm. Address : jijamata stadiysm complex.

As per time i reached their @ 8.15 pm but bus did not came on time, so i called them on their given number and asked about office, he told me to come at ni3 office in same place as bus was running delay by 40 min.

After some time @9.10 bus came to jijamata stadiysm complex # mh 04 fk 9367

I went towards the bus and shown driver my ticker # 4, but when i went inside the bus there was already one person seated on same ticket/seat, then we called office person to solved the issues
One man came from ni3 office and said today there were some issues with online booking for red bus and showing two tickets for some seats, so he requested me to seat on # 12.

I agreed to seat on # 12 but there was again problem with it, he told to seat on #12 and given me place of #15, i asked him what's going on, then he replied all correct the print on which you seated is wrong. Please ignore and seat on #12 but which is actually 15. But as per booking mine was #4.

I still adjust and accepted his request. Same time one boy from bus seated back to me called me, who was travelling in same bus from malkapure from last 50/60 km. He told bro can you please check with driver is he drunk?

I got shocked and checked with driver, he was really drunk. I asked him what's going on and how you can drive when your drunk?
Then he said, no i am not driving, from here (Buldana) there will be second driver, then i checked with second driver as well and i surprised he was also drunk.

How this can be possible both drivers are drunk and driving the bus from more than 1 hrs. Suddenly all people from bus came down and started shouting then both drivers run always from place.
I called that same guy from ni3 office, and told him this all scenario then he replied it's not his bus and he can't do anything in this, as he was just helping to the people as there were some issues with seat.

Along with me there were few college student, i explained them what will be consequence if we go in same bus with drunk drivers, they agreed with me and decided not to travel with same bus. One person from my bus called police help line # and got replied please brink bus into the station. Now how we can take bus to station without driver?

So finally we stopped the bus and i decided not to go in same bus anyhow as it's not safe anymore

Same time i have raised an complaint with red bus #concern 7770095 but got replied there are sending other driver but no one came and then after some time that ni3 office man on called 2, 3 peoples. And asked for new driver then one boy came and had few chat and called that drunk driver again (He eat some pan/mouth freshener to hide the smell of drink) and started journey again by saying from next station he will arrange new driver. But i was not ready seat and also tried to explained as much i can to all people but 5 to 10 people listen to me (Student only as they are smaller than me) and came back to home with me. But other not who are actually had more experience and senior than me.

Now i came home but still thinking on below as no one replied me and my friends and few people told ignore this don’t get involved as your safe now, but how i can.
Is this our responsibility toward society? And how we can stop this incidence going forward

1. How it possible same tickets has been booked by two person
2. Who is the owner of bus
3. Why he allowed to drive without checking drivers
4. Why ni3 boy said its not his bus after issues
5. How can we bring bus to police station without driver
6. Why people are taking risk of their life and started journey in same bus
7. Who is the responsible for above incidence

People really don’t have value for other life. I will still ask red bus to stop such services and check all your driver and local offices before they start journey
