Coimbatore: The Tirupur city corporation on Friday collected nasal swabs from a government bus conductor for Covid-19 testing as he was applying saliva on tickets to single them out from the bundle before issuing the same to passengers.
According to an official source, passengers had raised objections when 47-year-old Gunasekaran, a conductor with a Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation (TNSTC) mofussil bus, used his saliva to single out tickets for issuing the same to them, citing the pandemic situation.
“However, Gunasekaran didn’t pay heed to them. He also didn’t wear the face mask properly. A corporation official was also travelling in the bus. The official alerted an urban primary health centre. Health workers subsequently collected nasal swabs from the conductor from the bus stand opposite to the collector’s office on Palladam Road,” the source said.
