Karnataka HC disallows bus transport strike scheduled to start tomorrow

[ad_1]
Bengaluru: The Karnataka High Court has put temporary brakes on the proposed transport strike called by a state transport corporation employees union known as the ‘Sarige Nigamagala Noukarara Samana Manskara Vedike’.
The strike in demand of wage revision, allowances and reinstatement of employees was to commence on March 24.
A Division Bench of the High Court comprising Chief Justice Prasanna B Varale and Justice Ashok S Kinagi, which heard a public interest litigation (PIL) against the strike call on Thursday, opined that since there are public exams going on for students across Karnataka, any strike would put their future in jeopardy. Therefore, any strike should not be allowed during this period.
Directing that no strike should be undertaken till the next date of hearing, the court adjourned the case by three weeks. Notices were ordered to be issued to the transport union in the PIL.
The indefinite strike was earlier announced by the union which represents employees from the BMTC, KSRTC, NWKRTC and KKRTC.
The PIL against the strike said it would cause unwanted suffering to the public, especially students and those in need of medical help. Since various exams are being conducted at this point of time, students will be put to trouble jeopardising their education.
The government counsel apprised the court that the state is holding meetings with the transport employees and another round is scheduled with the representatives on April 6 at 11.30 am. The court then directed that no strike should be held for the next three weeks and adjourned the hearing.

Telangana: TSRTC bus ticket fares now to fluctuate as ‘Dynamic Pricing’ introduced

[ad_1]
Hyderabad: The Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TSRTC) has decided to carry out the ‘Dynamic Pricing’ system in online ticket bookings. This new system is being made available in 46 services on the Bengaluru route as a part of the pilot project.
TSRTC Chairman Bajireddy Govardhan, MLA, and Managing Director and Vice Chairman Shri V.C.Sajjanar, IPS, jointly shared the details of the dynamic pricing policy at a media conference held at Bus Bhavan in Hyderabad on Thursday.
It has been announced that the dynamic pricing system will be made available from March 27 for services to Bengaluru from Hyderabad, Warangal, Karimnagar and Khammam.
The management of TSRTC said that dynamic pricing is already used in other reservation services such as private bus operators, hotels, flight bookings, trains (tatkal service) etc.
The dynamic pricing system is where the ticket prices fluctuate depending on parameters like the number of passengers, traffic, demand etc.
If there is less traffic, the ticket price in this system will be lower than the normal fare. In case of high demand, there will be changes in the charges accordingly. The dynamic pricing system uses advanced data analysis and machine learning algorithms to determine the charges based on market demand.
Private bus operators’ only strategy of pricing in other states is by comparing it with RTC.
“Private operators are charging exorbitant charges even on normal days. But on peak days, ticket prices are usually increased. We have decided to introduce a dynamic pricing system in online ticket booking in order to provide affordable and budget-friendly travel when compared to the private operators and also reach more people. Due to this system, the unseasonal ticket prices would be 20 to 30 per cent less than the original fare. Peak seasons would have the inverse effect respectively,” said TSRTC Chairman Bajireddy Govardhan, MLA and MD VC Sajjanar, IPS.
