Hyderabad, October 16: (Siasat News) Charminar bus stand was setup on the foot of historical Charminar with the purpose of providing facilities to the residents of old city where hundreds of burqa clad women, elderly people, school and college going students gather to head for their destination.
Unfortunately APSRTC seems to fail totally in providing facilities to the commuters. Apart from litter and pitfalls hither and thither, even the shelter is not available for the commuters to wait for the buses.
Most of the commuters are found seated on the boundary wall constructed around the bust stop hanging around for their bus to come. Neither drinking water nor even toilet facility is provided for the public.
RTC adds to the woes of commuters by repeated delays in bus arrival and cancellation of buses.
The said bus stand provides shelter for the band of smokers and drunkards day and night even as a large number of commuters is present all the time waiting for their buses.
