Karnataka Bus Fare Hike Could Come This Month

Bus rides in Karnataka may cost more soon.

The state is considering fare changes for four government-run bus companies.

A committee has finished studying their finances and suggesting fare increases.

It is expected to give its report to the government shortly.

The transport minister says the government will discuss the report with the Chief Minister.

The Cabinet must approve any change before it begins.

Higher diesel prices have made it more expensive to run the buses.

The corporations have also reported losses in each of the three financial years listed.

The government has not yet announced a final decision.
