The RTC confirmed that fare adjustments are made based on government orders issued in 2003. It emphasized that no extra financial burden has been imposed on the public.
TGS RTC accused Harish Rao of spreading misinformation solely for political gain. The corporation also refuted allegations that bus services were reduced during the Dasara festival.
