PMPML Struggles with Bus Breakdowns

In Pune, there have been a lot of bus breakdowns.

Over two years, there were 41,858 breakdowns, with most happening in buses run by private contractors.

This causes big problems for people who use the buses every day.

The PMPML, which runs these buses, has tried to fix the issue by checking buses more often and talking to the contractors.

But the breakdowns are still happening a lot.

In November 2025 alone, 1,585 buses broke down.

The PMPML is trying to make things better, but it's still a big problem.
