BJP leader seeks probe into Kishanganj-Muzaffarpur bus service
BJP's former district president Sushant Gop has demanded an impartial investigation into the bus service operating from Kishanganj bus depot to Muzaffarpur. Gop visited the bus stand after receiving complaints of irregularities in bus operations, including permit and schedule issues.
Passengers like Noor Islam have alleged that they were dropped off mid-route at night and charged extra fare. Gop called it a serious matter of passenger safety and urged the transport department to take action against those responsible.
The bus driver stated that the vehicle is a government bus, but said they will not carry passengers as their permit is for the morning shift.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The allegations point to a breakdown in regulatory oversight of public transport in Kishanganj. Passengers are left vulnerable when buses deviate from permits and schedules without consequence. The transport department's investigation will determine whether this is an isolated case or a systemic failure. Gop's demand for action puts the onus on officials to demonstrate accountability.
