    This is absurd. The list if never ending! 'Physically assaulted a LADY and RAN AWAY!''. Seriously??? That too for requesting a 'seat for a physically disabled ''?? . So what is the justification for this act? For sure its not economy!

    Mrs Lenny. I do agree with you. The irony is, you guys are mute on such incidents. You turn a blind eye for other acts viz smuggling, physical abuse of animals etc. However you come all out with gun blazing for some Bajranga Dala guys apprehending some cattle thieves. This sort of hypocricy is one big reason why, BJP is winning hands down and any chunnu munnu can win from this party . Time to introspect.

    People are becoming selfish these days. I travel by bus daily and see people sitting in the seats reserved for Handicapped & Senior Citizens. Whenever such people board the bus they are denied of the seats reserved to them. Even pregnant ladies are not given seat. My suggestion to bus authorities is that among the seats which are reserved for ladies one seat should be for pregnant women. Hope one day this will be considered......

    Yes ...there are two seats allocated for physically disabled and two seats minimum for senior citizens. I travel a lot by bus and i am senior citizen. Once i requested a student to give me a seat which was allocated for senior citizen but he refused. I couldn't stand due to surgery . I reauested conductor to help me but in vain. None of the passengers were supportive. Later he got down and showed me his middle finger. One can imagine our youths upbringing and their future. My opinion is every bus should be strict on keeping these seats vacant same like ladies seats

    I am sure that the boy who disrespected you would have got down at bokkapatna or krishnapura or Ullal. Such a disrespect to an elderly lady can come only from those people.

    Insensitive and heinous behavior.... He should have felt happy within to help the weaker and disabled person... He should have done it even before the conductor requested... This type of behavior must be condemned.... It is even unacceptable that he dared to assault a person on duty and that too a woman.... Shameful incident.... he is man no more....
