HYDERABAD: Rise in Covid-19 cases throughout Telangana state has manifested by way of decreasing numbers of people commuting using state road transport corporation buses, whether on its district or city bus services.
This mainly follows TSRTC staff, including conductors and drivers, adhering to the state-controlled corporation’s dictum of “No Mask No Journey”. On its part, RTC has also started a special campaign to inoculate its staff above 45 years against the virus.
