At the same time, Karnataka RTC is operating three luxury buses from Kasargod to Mangalore and their Airavat Volvo AC bus running via Madikeri is charging just Rs. 640 and a Non AC Sleeper Bus which is running via Sullya, Madikeri is charging Rs. 590 and a Rajahamsa Executive bus going via Puttur, Hassan is charging Rs. 553.
There is a huge fare difference between these buses running in the Kasargod – Bangalore sector by both the corporations and people have started avoiding the Kerala RTC bus because of this huge fare difference.
Dear KSRTC officers, please open up your eyes and solve this fare difference as soon as earlier, so that the people will start considering our buses. If not, you may have to stop this service nearby in the future by telling that the service is loss making.
