Introduce bus tickets
Most bus services in the capital do not issue tickets to passengers. This practice needs to be stopped immediately.
Last week we saw school and college students demonstrating and demanding road safety for all. The government has agreed in principle to meet their demands. The road authorities should, as part of the overall improvement to the transport sector, make it mandatory for bus owners to introduce bus tickets to avoid any unpleasant incidents in this regard.
Passengers are entitled to receive tickets as proof of payment of fares.
