Bengal Transport Minister to Discuss Bus Modernization with Owners

The West Bengal government is meeting with private bus owners to make buses better for commuters.

They want to update the buses by using an app called 'Yatri Sathi' that tells people where their bus is.

The bus owners are worried about the cost of new things, like smartphones for drivers, and they are talking to the government about it.

The government also wants to put up digital boards at bus stops.

The bus owners want to set a basic fare and want similar rules for state and private buses.

They also want the government to improve roads.
