The Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TSRTC) took action against a bus conductor who issued a ticket to a woman despite the free travel facility for women introduced across the state. A video went viral on social media showing the conductor issuing tickets to women passengers, despite the free travel under the Mahalakshmi scheme. The conductor defended his action, but an inquiry has been ordered and departmental action will be taken against him.
The Mahalakshmi scheme allows women, girls, and transgenders domiciled in Telangana to travel for free in TSRTC buses anywhere in the state. They can travel free in Palle Velugu and Express buses after showing their identity card.
