High fare is consumed today (11 December) in govenment bus in chennai today. The bus run between chennai and vilupuram. I have boarded in bus today at guduvancherry. The actual fare for guduvanchery to mahidra city is 11 rupees. But the conductor charged 18 rupees and he gave ticket for perungalathur to mahindra city. When i asked he strictly said no for my argument. I have been travellin in this route for past 3 years and i am paying 11 rupees only. Kindly check this and revert back on this. Bus - Chennai to Vilupuram Date - 11 December 2015 Bus Number - 3677 Thanks, Madhan R [protected]

    I going to tambaram from Tiruvannamalai to ADYAR Bus. I have two luggages including laptop. Bus was full and I am sitting next to driver seat. Two bags are heavy to hold in hand. Due to no luggage cabin near me. I put one of my bag in engine box. But conductor is not allowing to keep it there. I said If my bag is disturbing you or driver I will take it. He is not giving valid reason. He just want the bag to be taken from that place. I explained a lot. We are humans He should adjust and help others.. I dono what will happen if I put the bag there..

    I just wantto to know...

    I seen many buses put lot of luggages like flower box, parcel, etc.. how those are acceptable. Why it differs??????


    Apart from my issue, Openly speaking, I seen many occasions the farmers/ village peoples are not treated well by conductors. For 30/35 Rs ticket the decent dressed persons are getting change for 500/1000 where as village peoples didn't get change for Rs 50/100 and are about to get down from the bus.. this is very bad..I didn't see the equality here.

    Bus Contactor is not adjustable. - Comment #2261961 - Image #0

      Im travelling from chennai to pondicherry by time night 1.30am. It was raining and the rain water is dropping inside bus and i got wet fully. I changed my seat and again it was same problem. Then i travelled in standing but even though the water is getting inside. All passengers are affected by same problem. This is really bad. The government is failed to maintain the bus condition. Not even caring about the passengers. Most of them were ladies and children. Please maintain all the buses in good condition and make the passengers to feel safe while travelling. Thats the duty and responsibity of the TN government. Im from pondicherry and I have never seen such a bus in this bad condition.

              I was traveling from k. Chettipalayam to tirupur bus stand. When the bus was nearing to bus stand, I got down into steps. So immediately the conductor has asked me to get above the stairs. Respecting his words I got above the stairs. Inspite of getting into the bus, he started speaking disrespectfully on me. I am a banker and we know how to treat a customer. I warned him that his speech is very wrong and disrespectful. He said "who the hell r u to give me respect". I dint noted down the board number but the sticker number is 3/24 i guess. The driver, knowing nothing about the incident just came to me said to get down from the bus. But I resisted. And the name of that conductor is Saravanan. Pls kindly take action against him.

                Why the conductors and other officials are asking for the print out, better the passengers can show the tickets in Email format using this devices. There is no use of Print outs. Yesterday i was not allowed to travel in SETC bus because i just forgot the Print out in home.

                  Address: Chennai, Tamil Nadu, 600010

                  I got into bus from KK-nagar Amman kovil stop to get down at 'Ayiram Vilakku' stop. Nov 8th. Around 8 am Sunday. (

                  11G or 11H is the route number) There is totally 10 passengers. Raining heavily.The conductor sitting in the last

                  seat and asked me to come using gesture.Just he wagged his forefinger.
                  I was confused and staring at him whom he was calling.I am a project manager in a reputed concern in bangalore.
                  He just shouted 'Are you coming here ? or Shall I make you to come over here? ' - I felt really bad and staring at

                  him.

                  Suddenly he reached me and started using low profile abusive words. When i said 'please mind your words' he just

                  raised his hands to hit me saying 'Are you a IAS officer? you bloody cheat... and some bad tamil words...' won't

                  you come and get the tickets ?'

                  As he used bad words I said ' I will complaint to the Depot manager. So pls don't use bad words'.
                  He become more worse now 'I will face anyone and nobody can touch me...you won't reach home

                  properly...'blah..blah...lot o[censored]nprintable words . IYI -3062 TN-01N-9198 is the bus number. Please save

                  passengers from him.He wore specs and bit dark in color.

                  So I took photo of the bus number. On seeing this he got irritated and stopped the bus before the police station.

                  Directly went inside and called the inspector. So I went to inspector and explained the situation. Immediately he

                  asked the conductor to start the bus and resume the journey. The driver was silently watching as spectator. Few

                  people supported me and the conductor started shouting at them too.
                  He wasted nearly 1 hour and his ego was not satisfied. After that he just stood near to me and was saying some bad

                  words as if he is talking to some other guy. I just got down from the bus in the next stop. Still he shouted some

                  bad word when i got down.

                    Please allocate some seats for ladies in tnstc buses especially tirunelveli nagercoil end to end, tirunelveli tuticorin buses. Ladies face lot of problems even while getting in to the. The men who are strong enough always fight with ladies in getting first into the bus for seat. Women harrasment starts immediately after getting out from home to their work place. This may sounds silly but this is what actually happening. So please frame some rules

                          Hi, The TNSTC city buses have started carrying hoardings (advertisements on the glass windows) which is obstructing the view. Passengers are unable to see outside as the advertisement stickers stuck on the glass windows obstruct the views. Recently, the passengers miss the bus stops due to this. The authorities must be instructed to remove the hoardings
                          Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation [TNSTC] customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                            Hi All,

                            This is to bring to your kind attention about the bus was damaged,


                            I would like to notice you that entire bus was damaged. below are issues I faced while travelling.


                            I booked the Bus at 3.15 PM at Arupukottai to Chennai. but the bus reached arupukkotai at 5.30 and my seat number was 35 & 35 and seat 36 was damaged I informed the conductor dint take any action regarding this. but he was eagrly russing to madurai bus stand as one passenger din't board the bus to fill that space and fill the frond space and he filled four persons in the bus.


                            While travelling the rain started. On the top of my seat rain water was flooding like anything and i informed the conductor. He said kindly adjust it may rain for few minutes and the the rain continued till the last. Again went both the driver and bus conductor to stop at any bus depot and change the bus or make any alternate arrangements on this.

                            The driver and conductor refused to give the managers number on regarding this, the driver started using abusal language scloding the tutucrine manager.

                            Finally I got the number from my cousin and stated reaching this number[protected] which I was nort reachable then I got depot incharge number ([protected]) and called him he also was not responding to me said kindly adjust and continue your journey.

                            then I was totally frustrated with entirely with wet clothes having my two year old baby girl then I reached the SETCheadoffice contact number ([protected]). I informed the person about the situation what was happening. The person told me to give the phone to the driver or the conductor. Driver refused to answer the call as the conductor was driving. he said he will look into this matter and after 15 to 20 min I got a call stating that this bus will be demolish in 10 days. When I heard this I was totally shocked and asked the person whether are we bulls and goates. for animals even there is blue cross for us who is there there.

                            Finally I would like to inform that I could not reach office as myself & my kid is having a sever illness. As my kid was taken to hospital today.

                            pls note that I was not the only victim as there were around 10 to 15 passengers affected due to rain water falling on our head there were more that 60 plus elder person and children were affected on this.

                            Hope the management of SETC transport will take necessary action on this provide a safer and good infrastructure buses for the commuters.

                            I tried reaching the Tutucourin number[protected] Mr.Srinivasan attended the call and he said he will take this to his higher officials on regarding this.


                            personally I pray to God this should situation should not happen to any of the citizen in INDIA. Jai Hind


                            note : Kindly advise the conductor and driver to properly answer in any manner and in any situation.

                            @ Thanks to Mr. Srinivasan ( [protected]) as he was the only person who understood my situation. I hope he might take this to higher authorities of SETC. Jai Hind

                              Hi, Today 9/27/2015 around 9:45 pm my mother fell down from the bus at Thiruverumbur, trichy bus stop. The bus number, TN-45 N-3146 going from Trichy junction to Thanjavur. It was raining heavily when we were getting down at Thiruverumbur bus stop, while my mother was getting down, bus started moving, my mother lost balance and fell down from the bus. She got hurt. This happened because of the negligence of the conductor. He gave signal to driver without even checking if everyone has got down. I kindly request you to take proper action (Probably a day of absence) on the conductor who was on board in the bus TN-45 N-3146 going from Trichy junction to Thanjavur started around 9:30 PM from trichy junction. Please consider it as a serious concern. Don't understand why they are hurrying. If they want to go fast let them go in their personal vehicle. Bus is running for us, they need to understand, we are their customers without us they don't have a job. Similar incident happened to me on 9/26/2015, yesterday morning. I managed to get into the bus.

                                    Address: Erode, Tamil Nadu

                                    I travelled from coimbatore to erode on 19.9.15 around 2.30pm TN 30 N 1328 . I forgot to take one of my bag (bigsofer) while I get down from bus which contains newly purchased items. After I remember about bag I urge to tnstc Salem enquiry center in erode bus stand. At that time bus left the bus stand and the officer told that the bus gone for trip to Salem and may return back by 8.10pm The officer hesitate to contact the conductor and he ask me to wait . I waited and once bus arrived in bus stand I asked the conductor about bag. He replied that he not found any bag inside the bus and he left the place. I doubt about conductor words and I checked inside the bus. My bag was kept in conductor place in front side of bus. Then I asked him about this. He became angry and start to scolding me. I request you to take necessary action and ensure safety of passenger lugage .
