    In India any travel is a hassle for ordinary people, not the fat cat politicians or other VIPs. Whether it is train or air, the travel remains very uncomfortable, owing to a number of factors: passenger’s behaviour in terms of luggage they carry and their attitude, poor hygiene in the compartments and cabins, rude behaviour of those who operate the services, and the list never ends!
    Looking at this announcement, I see 4 problems: 1. The buses look flimsy. Just compare them with the newer grey hound buses introduced in the US or the FlixBuses in Europe. They are so good structurally and comfort-wise with superb seat design and amenities inside. 2. The route to Mysore-Bombay in terms of roads/highway are of poor quality, and make the passenger feel shaky, painful , rattled and totally uncomfortable in such a way, a passenger may need a few days rest after this ordeal. Outside the bus, the passenger looks at developments of all sorts, as the country is sagging down with the population explosion. Europe and US are comparatively less populated, nature is preserved to produce excellent sceneries for the passengers. The highways crossing several states in US, and several countries in Europe are of such high quality that these buses simply glide on them. Passenger get good rest, 3. The rest points in between- excellent road side facilities -clean toilets, snacks etc.. 4. Indian passenger fares increase massively each year. In Europe and US, the long distance bus fares are considerably cheap with old age and youth concessions.
    The basic overall problem is India is massively over populated with fast increasing in the rate of population growth.

    Perhaps, most”news papers” have become a rag sheet for publishing only readymade PR handouts prepared and handed out by the departments and agencies? What about raising questions, seeking clarity, providing meaningful news that matters to the citizens?

    Thank you KSRTC.
    Infact this is re-introducing of Airavat in this route. There used to be daily services lang back and it was our priority to travel this route.

    The present buses both private and Govt. are plying between Mysuru and Mumbai via Chenraypatna, Arsikere, Bhadravathi, Shimoga, towards Pune and Mumbai. Wonder the logic of this bus taking deviation to Hassan, Belur, Chikmangalur, Kadur. People form Hassan can use the bus from Chenraypatna, while from Chikmangalur from Kadur. Why will a person boarding a bus at Mysuru would like to have tour of cities, and increase their travel time. Vinasha kale vipuritha buddhi
