Private Buses To Run In Odisha From Tomorrow

Bhubaneswar: Private buses will finally make a comeback on streets for the first time from tomorrow almost two months after the public transport was stopped after enforcement of Covid lockdown across the country.

Announcing the big development, State Private Bus Owners’ Association secretary Debendra Sahoo today said that they have decided to run buses from May 28 following a fruitful discussion with the government.

“During the general body meeting today, the State government has fulfilled our three primary demands and assured to pay heed to some others in view of the losses incurred by bus owners due to lockdown. After a unanimous decision between all the stakeholders and keeping in mind the interest of the public, we have decided to run the buses across the State from tomorrow,” said Sahoo.
