Mehsana gets city bus service

After a long wait and a public outcry, three city buses have started operating in Mehasana from today, 10 more buses will also start soon.

After the local bus service was stopped in Mehsana few months back, the daily commuters had to travel in Auto Rickshaw, which was not affordable. The demands for the city bus services were made but it delayed again and again, the leaders had threatened to go on a strike on this issue. Many students displayed their frustrations by making cartoons of this issue. The promise of the new buses was made in May.

Finally on Wednesday last week 3 buses reached Mehsana for local service, while other buses arrived on Friday.

The new local bus service will be beneficial to the people living in the city and the neighboring Kherva Palavasna, Nagalpur, Panchot and Lakhvad. Due to reasonable rates of the bus tickets, the school students and the people working in the offices will also be able to commute at ease.
