Pune Commuters Slam PMPML Fare Hike Amid Service Concerns

Pune Commuters Slam PMPML Fare Hike Amid Service Concerns

Pune's public bus service, PMPML, increased fares recently, saying it needed money to improve buses.

However, people are angry because the buses are still dirty, ACs don't work, and buses don't come often.

Some commuters now pay much more, but they don't see any improvements.

PMPML says that the number of passengers has not decreased since the fare hike.

There's also a shortage of buses.

Plus, buses often break down, leaving passengers stranded.

People think they are not getting their money’s worth.
