Subject: Regarding the improper operating service of the Kullakamby Tirupur bus TN38 N 2368 in Nilgiris district.

Until 1970’s there was private bus services in Nilgiris district. Those days a bus from our village kullakamby to Mettupalayam was operated. Later on when the private bus was restricted in nilgiris district and only government service was implemented, this bus was handed over to the government and it was undertaken by Cheran transport corporation. And at present the TNSTC is operating the TN38 N 2368 bus in this timing with extension to Tirupur.
Morning 6:20 AM this bus starts from kullakamby and plys to Tirupur via Coonoor. And then 3:45 PM the bus arrives to Coonoor and plys to kullakamby. From there at 4:45 PM starts from Kullakamby and reaches Mettupalayam, from there 7:30 PM it starts and reaches Coonoor and later 9:45 PM starts from Coonoor and halts in Kullakamby at 10:30 PM. In this already due to mismanagement and driver conductors irregularity this bus was stopped in the 3:45 PM Coonoor to Kullakamby trip. After several complaint and agitation a local bus TN 43 N 509 bus is being operated at 3:30 PM.
In morning instead to start at 6:20 AM the bus is being operated 6:00 AM at 20 minutes advance and in the last trip instead of starting at 9:45 PM they are operating at 10:30 PM and above in which they are delaying more than one hour. This is happening because the Coonoor management want to record as no collection trip and remove this bus from our village service. They have removed this bus in the February month and after various complaints, agitations and Coonoor MLA’s meddle the bus was operated in march excluding the evening 3:45 PM trip.
Now again after few weeks regular operation inorder to remove this bus from this kullakamby village the drivers, conductors and Coonoor management jointly continuing to operate in irregular timings. Which we strongly condemn this and bring this to your notice and we seek to advice the Coonoor management not to involve in such activities and operate this bus in our village timings regularly.
Thanking you
