Bhatti Reviews Hyderabad Metro–RTC Common Pass Facility
Hyderabad has introduced a pass that works for both the Metro and RTC buses.
Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka rode both kinds of transport to see how it works.
He asked passengers whether changing from the Metro to a bus was difficult.
Passengers said they liked being able to use one pass for both parts of their trip.
They said this saved time because they did not need to buy another ticket.
They also said it was easier to know which bus to take.
Bhatti and other ministers rode a TGSRTC bus from Jubilee Hills Check Post to the Secretariat.

He reviewed how the new RTC–Metro Common Pass was working for passengers.
