Odisha Enhances Ama Bus Safety

Odisha Enhances Ama Bus Safety

The Odisha government has created a special team to make the Ama Bus service safer.

This team will meet regularly to check how the buses are running and make sure drivers are well-trained.

They will also add more small buses to help people get around better.

Additionally, the government launched the National Road Safety Month to teach people about safety rules.

They also started a program called 'Ama Subahak' to help women become drivers with their own four-wheelers.

Special kits were given to bus owners to check if drivers are sleepy or drunk.

A new digital ticketing system called FASTicket was also introduced to make bus travel easier and safer.
