KSRTC to ferry farmers' produce in AC buses

Bengaluru, Aug 1 (UNI) The Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation will soon deploy its fleet of Air Conditioned (AC) buses to help the horticulture farmers take their produce faster to markets, a department official said Sunday.
KSRTC's move to transport vegetables and fruits as part of its value added services comes to augment newer avenues for revenue generation as the department has been hard-hit by the pandemic.
Department MD Shivayogi Kalasad said that old air conditioned buses will be used for transporting vegetables and fruits for one month on an experimental basis. "In the first phase, the KSRTC will deploy AC buses at Chikkaballapur, Kolar, Hospet, Bengaluru and other surrounding places," Mr Kalasad said.
