|October 15, 2024
IN the face of strong opposition from trade unions associated with the CPM, AIADMK and others, the Villupuram division of TNSTC has begun hiring private vehicles on a Gross Cost Contract (GCC) basis to meet the transportation demand during festival season.
For Ayudha Pooja holidays, the corporation hired 15 mofussil buses to manage the extra rush between Koyambedu and Tiruvannamalai, though only five were actually put into service, official sources said. The private buses on these high-demand routes will be paid ₹45 to 50 per km by TNSTC as per the GCC.
