In fact, the Transport Corporation had decided to operate the bus from a relatively less expensive CNG in the board meeting.

It was decided that CNG kits will be installed in more than 600 buses that operate on plains. Before the code of conduct came into force, the Transport Corporation had also floated its tender. The tender has also been opened. Transport Corporation’s General Manager Operations and Technical Deepak Jain said that no further action will be started after the code of conduct are over. A budget has also been arranged for this. He expressed hope that by June-July, roadways buses would start operating from CNG.
