The long wait of patients of the Government Medical College, Ernakulam, for buses continues even after three years since the government had taken over the college. There are only a few buses plying through the medical college area.

 Thousands of patients coming from different parts are facing hardships in the absence of adequate buses.

There are many KSRTC buses on Aluva-Tripunthura sector plying through the Seaport-Airport Road. If some of the buses are diverted to the medical college area, it would address the transportation woes of the patients to some extent.

 With no one to take the initiative for getting the government nod for the purpose, the dearth of proper transportation facilities has become a headache for patients.
