Kerala Private Bus Operators Plan Protest Against State Free Travel Scheme

Private bus operators in Kerala are set to launch a protest against the state government's free travel scheme called Priyadarshini. The scheme was introduced under the Congress government's Indira Guarantee Scheme and offers free rides to eligible passengers. Currently, the initiative is being implemented across 3,125 ordinary KSRTC buses throughout the state. Private operators appear to be opposing the scheme, likely citing concerns over unfair competition and loss of ridership revenue.
