Thiruvananthapuram
Buses in Kerala State Road Transport Corporation achieved a rare feat by rolling out new registration series for its buses on Saturday.
KSRTC’s first bus in the new registration series — KL 15-A — left the central workshop at Pappanamcode to Kasaragod in the drizzling evening to join the other buses in its fleet.
KSRTC executive director (technical) M T Sukumaran said the first bus in the new series, KL 15-A 1, will ply between Kasaragod and Mangalore from next week. “The bus body was built at the central workshop and of course it’s a remarkable achievement for KSRTC. We are trying our best to introduce more buses to our fleet and have added 3,500 vehicles since 2007,” he said.
KSRTC came into existence on April 1, 1965 starting with just 30 new buses and eight new lorries. Today, KSRTC has 6,068 buses, including 622 off-road ones, apart from the 320 Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM) buses.
