Sir, The circulation of Rs. 10 coins is testing the patience of people. RBI guidelines state that there is no ban on coins but commercially it is not even accepted by Government/Private Banks, Railway Station, bus services or anyone. When note ban was effected since November 2016, the banks could not provide required denominations in…
Sir, Apropos the letters in SOM dated May 3, 2017 and April 18, 2017 regarding introduction of direct buses, I have been ‘fleeing’ to and from Electronics City, Bengaluru to Jayanagar, Mysuru since July 2016 on Fridays.

Realising that several rural students are facing a lot of difficulty in reaching exam centres on time in rural belts, the Government has ordered immediate implementation of the facility. Students travelling in buses must produce their hall…
Sir, I would like to draw the attention of the authorities concerned towards the difficulties faced by the aged passengers who are alighting from the long distance buses at Mysuru.
