Respected Sir/Madam,
I am Gowtham of Coimbatore... I am schooling at 11 th standard... I was returning to my house after my tuition in # 26 bus..the route is from Gandhipuram to Veerepandi... the registration number of the bus was # TN 38 A 0764. when i got into the bus at G.P stopping the conductor asked me money for ticket and i gave him 10rupees instead of 2 rupees... He shouted at me and asked me to get down.. i pose a question.." ARE WE LIVING IN A DEMOCRATIC COUNTRY???WHO IS THAT IDIOT TO ASK ME TO GET DOWN OF A GOVERNMENT BUS".. I refused to get down because the law doesn't allow it. I knew a few things about LAWS as I am the son of a PUBLIC PROSECUTOR.. That conductor got angered and said that he knew many laws stating that the MOTOR ACT allows the passengers who doesn't have proper change to be punished, To me NO LAW states such an idiotic thing... Then he pulled the 10 rupees note from me and it too tore... Now he asked me money and when i gave money he refused to get the ten rupee note which was tore... then at last he got 10 rupees and marked as "10/1" at the back of the ticket and did not give the balance... When my stop came I asked him the balance... He replied in an ABUSING WORD and said that " DO WHATEVER YOU CAN... I CAN'T GIVE THE BALANCE.."... I don't know what to do... I have to go another 4 km in bus but I didn't have money... so I have to go by walking and this gave me mental and physical stress to me... To mention the name... the name of the conductor is P.RAVI...
WHO IS THERE TO ANSWER ME... ARE THEY THE GOVERNMENT SERVENTS... IT IS CONDUCTOR'S DUTY TO HAVE CHANGE... WHERE ARE WE... ARE WE IN A CAPITALIST COUNTRY OR IN A DEMOCRATIC COUNTRY???... I KINDLY REQUEST THE HIGHER OFFICIAL TO GET MY 8 RUPEES BACK AND TAKE ACTIONS ON THE CONDUCTOR... IF THERE IS NO ACTION ON HIM... ONE FINE DAY HE WOULD OWN THE BUS HIMSLF AND WILL ILLTREAT THE PASSENGERS...
YOURS FAITHFULLY,
GOWTHAM . S
