Due to the increase in fuel prices, increased cost of bus spare parts, and increase in dearness allowance, ST bus fares have been increased by 14.95 percent. Due to this, passengers across the state are expressing displeasure. In such a situation, Transport Minister Pratap Sarnaik himself has made a surprising statement that he had no idea about the proposed fare hike. Therefore, was the fare hike done without asking the Transport Minister? This question is being raised.इंधन दरवाढ, बसच्या सुट्या भागांची वाढलेली किंमत, महागाई भत्त्यात झालेली वाढ यामुळे एसटीच्या बस प्रवासात १४.९५ टक्क्यांनी वाढ करण्यात आली आहे. त्यामुळे राज्यभरातील प्रवाशांकडून नाराजीचा सूर उमटू लागला आहे. अशा स्थितीत प्रस्तावित भाडेवाढीची मला कोणतीच कल्पना नव्हती, असे आश्चर्यकारक वक्तव्य खुद्द परिवहन मंत्री प्रताप सरनाईक यांनी केले आहे. त्यामुळे परिवहनमंत्र्यांना न विचारताच भाडेवाढ झाली का? असा प्रश्न उपस्थित होत आहे. sikaNews18 Lokmat is one of the leading YouTube News channels which delivers news from across Maharashtra, India and the world 24x7 in Marathi.
