Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation [TNSTC] — requesting govt. bus services back to our area

Address:

604403

Dear sir,

Greetings.! Its great pleasure to had a chance to contact you and it would be even greater if you have 5 minutes of your time to read the below content which describes the problem faced in our area.

I am vijayakumar, hailing from kilkodungalore village (Fall between vandavasi - melmaruvattur) of vandavasi taluk under t. V. Malai dst.

I am writing this on behalf of the people from below villages

Marudadu, kilkodungalore, salavedu & ramapuram which falls between vandavasi & melmaruvattur.

In our area we have completely get ignored of the govt. Bus services (Particularly to chennai) recently.

From vandavasi, we have 2 routes to reach chennai, one via uttiramerur and other via melmaruvattur. Recently few of bus services via melmaruvattur is diverted to uttiramerur.

Recently route # 142 (From chetpet depot) has changed its course to uttiramerur. And no update on @8am (Route #208).

Morning services is very crucial for us because after 6.10 am, we people depend on either route #142 @ 7.20 am or route #208 @ 8am and next service is @ 9.45 am to chennai/tambaram.

Currently between 7 am – 8 am we have only 2 services rangasamy (Private bus) @ 7.15am and route # 200 @ 7.40 am both are fully crowded and people used to travel in top of buses and foot-board that too up to melmaruvattur, most of the people not able to board into the bus.

School / college / working professional / mgnerga people are heavily affected. We people around 40-50 regularly travelling in 142 and since it’s being stopped, we are forced to board into already over-crowded bus and catch another bus to chennai / tambaram and many people not able to do so and we are not able to reach on time.

We dialed to depot manager (Chetpet ([protected]) & vandavasi ([protected])) and they asking us to contact head-office @ t. V malai. We even went to head-office but they are ignoring us and they again asking us to contact to corresponding depot.

Kindly need your intervention on this at-least morning & evening services.
