BENGALURU: City bus terminus and BMTC-TTMC depots wore a deserted look with fleets of BMTC and KSRTC buses parked and passengers stranded waiting for those few buses that were operational to select destinations until evening after which operations of both BMTC and KSRTC slowly resumed.
APSRTC buses were operational the entire day going towards prominent cities in Andhra Pradesh except for Kadappa. Buses were seen picking up passengers to Thirupathi, Nellore, Vijayawada, Kakinada, Vishakapatnam, Kurnool and Hyderabad. These buses left Majestic bus stand in the morning.
Stranded passengers were found waiting for buses to Kadappa which were cancelled early in the morning as the situation in Kadappa was reported to be tense.
Around 25 BMTC buses were pelted with stones in different instances by miscreants in stray incidents reported at Kadugodi, Mysuru Road, Hosur Road, Jalahalli Cross and other areas and the BMTC has lodged police complaints with the respective police stations.
The city police commissioner said that all the trouble brewers who pelted stones on public vehicles would be dealt with stringently.
