The Telangana government has announced a fare hike on city bus services in Hyderabad, effective October 6, with increases ranging from Rs 5 to Rs 10. The revision aligns with its plan to deploy 2,800 electric buses by 2027 and reduce pollution within the Outer Ring Road.
TGSRTC has clarified that recent reports of a general fare hike during Raksha Bandhan are false. In an official statement, the corporation explained that fare adjustments were applied only to 4,650 special buses operated from August 7 to 11 to manage the festive demand.
