Firstly
, I am an regular traveller to use this
transport along with
my collegues to reach our colony. Secondaly, my office work will ends by 7: 30 PM after that I will take 20 min walk to reach the busstop everyday and immeditaly will get in to the vehicle and reach my home by 8:40 PM. beacuse of this
change in time, had to wait almost 150 miniutes to catch the bus
. In addition
to this
change most of the poeple who are using the service distrubed with their sleep. It will be good if we change the service back to the original timings or at least start the bus
before 9:00 PM so that people will manage their timings accordingly
wiht out wasting of time and sleep by waiting at the busstop. Please consider my request and do the needful. Yours faithfully, Varra Maruthi ReddySubmitted by maruthireddyjoy on
