TGSRTC mandates closed passenger doors on moving buses 'Conductor Death'

In the wake of the death of a woman conductor who was allegedly pushed out of a moving bus by a passenger, the Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TGSRTC) has made it mandatory for buses fitted with passenger doors to operate only with the doors properly closed.

The TGSRTC Mechanical Engineering Department has issued instructions to all



Deputy Regional Managers to ensure that passenger doors in buses under their respective jurisdictions are in proper working condition and remain closed while the vehicles are in motion.

The move follows the death of 24-year-old Gundla Pravalika, a conductor at the Manuguru RTC depot, who succumbed to her injuries on Tuesday night while undergoing treatment.
