Dirty curtains, defunct ACs make TNSTC bus ride horrible

New Indian Express  

SALEM: Passengers opting for AC bus services of the Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation flagged several issues including poor maintenance of the buses. "We choose AC buses for cleanliness, but the ones I've travelled in till now emitted foul smell and had dirty curtains, making the journey uncomfortable," she told TNIE. When contacted, TNSTC Salem Division General Manager B Gopalakrishnan told TNIE, "The curtains are cleaned twice a month, and the buses undergo cleaning once in a week at the depot." Given that each bus runs at least three trips daily, covering around 1,200 kilometres, it is recommended that the curtains be cleaned or replaced at least twice a week and the buses cleaned at least twice a day.
