BMTC
Electronic Tickets verses Normal punched tickets

Hello,

I am staying at HSR Layout in Bangalore and travel on weekdays for work to Electronic City Phase II.

I have clearly seen that some of the ticket conductors in the BMTC buses (ordinary or A/C) punch ticket for higher value if they give normal tickets as opposed to electronic ticket.

For example, from Agara bus stop to Konnappan Agrahara as per electronic ticketing system is Rs 35 in A/C bus, but if I get a bus which is having normal ticket the conductor takes Rs 40. Few times for shorter distances as well, either the conductor takes the money but does not tender ticket or tenders a ticket of higher value.

Getting change from the conductor has always been a challenge even if the bus is running at full load.

Request action to curb the extra incorrect charges.

regards

Lakshmi
