Special buses were launched by the APSRTC for the benefit of ‘beach walkers’ from some areas of the city to Ramakrishna Beach.

Collector Pravin Kumar formally flagged of the buses along GVMC Commissioner M. Harinarayanan. The Collector said use of public transport, instead of personal vehicles, to go to beach for a morning walk would help in minimising the pollution at the beach.
