Bengaluru: In a bid to augment revenues and to help the horticulture farmers take their produce faster to markets, the KSRTC will soon deploy its fleet of Air Conditioned (AC) buses for the purpose. The KSRTC, which is reeling under losses due to COVID-19 pandemic, is looking at newer avenues for revenue generation. Now it has planned to transport vegetables and fruits as part of its value added services.
KSRTC MD Shivayogi Kalasad said that old air conditioned buses will be used for transporting vegetables and fruits for one month on an experimental basis. This is being done to augment income which has hit rock-bottom due to COVID pandemic.
