One-day bus pass
At the time of bus fare hike in January 2018, the one-day bus pass (₹50 pass) issued by the TNSTC to travel anywhere in Madurai for a whole day, was withdrawn. I request the TNSTC to issue the daily bus pass again.
M. Saravanakumar,
Under-utilised railway stretch
Nagercoil and Coimbatore are connected through two express trains running via Karur, Erode and Tirupur. The newly-laid broad gauge line between Dindigul and Palghat/Coimbatore is under-utilised but for Amirtha Express running between Madurai and Thiruvananthapuram via Pollachi and Palghat. In spite of several representations, no trains have been introduced on the Dindigul-Pollachi- Coimbatore/Palghat section. The crores of money spent on this project is not serving the common man and it is a loss to the railways. I request the railway authorities to operate more trains and make the best use of this stretch.
