After the formation of Telangana, the Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TSRTC) has had a bumpy ride. From incurring losses on account of continuous hikes in diesel prices and the COVID–19 pandemic, to an ageing fleet, and from the 52-day strike of 2019 that paralysed public transport, to positives such as the introduction of inter-State electric buses, soon-to-be-introduced double decker buses, and improving staff and vehicle efficiency, despite all the odds.
The TSRTC is the go-to transport option each day in the State for an overwhelming 82.50 lakh passengers spread over more than 3,200 routes across Telangana.
