BMTC
Not Allowing pass, even though it is actually allowed

PASS ALLOW ILLA, ELLARU TICKET THOGOBEKU (Pass is not allowed, Everybody has to buy ticket)

This is the manthra of KA-01 F2220, everyday when it comes to Binnamangla (Old madras road). Even though its a normal BMTC bus where pass is allowed its the rule of the conductor and driver who makes our life miserable. I am a Software Engineer working in Kormangla, I have my daily pass which cost me 40 bucks upon that I have to pay for this nuisance. No people in the bus raise their voice and when I asked the old lady conductor the reason for not allowing pass the answer was 'Our Route is changed for Today' - Is this a reason? I travel daily by the same route, first of all there are not many buses, I stand their almost half an hour daily to catch a bus. Second of all the only 201D which comes by 9.30 has special rules made for itself. This is just unacceptable. When people in BMTC want us to buy tickets then why the hell are the pass for???

Not Happy,
