This shouldn’t be allowed. Just recently we heard about the tragic death of a conductor. Police should be vigilant. There were private buses on this route a few years back. Why were they stopped? They should be permitted again allowing some concession to students.

Government busses were less in Mangaluru because of the private bus lobby.
