Struggle for Conveyance


Day:Monday the 4th.there was a long term proposal by the RTC officials to go on Indefinite Strike .finally it was known that it was from Monday.they were intelligent enough to make it from Monday.
Reason:apart from school students getting effected college goers were badly effected too.many engneering colleges reopened that day.Even auto’s were supposedly to go on strike as that was the right time for their demands to be satisfied soon.but thank God they didn’t go.rescued!!!Complete chaos everywhere.There was palpable tension in everyone’s face.tourist buses plying as ordinary buses,school buses served the purpose.tickets were sold at exorbitant rate.public had no other go but to shell extra bucks to reach their destination.even though public raised the voice it turned into deaf ear’s .This contributed to increase in traffic ,pollution as many opted to take their own mode of commutation.men and women quickly scurrying to grab vacant seats.sprightly ones managed to squeeze the way out of the million population,less agile ones flinging handkerchiefs and what not.situation was quite pathetic.couple of them geting engrossed with their nespapers,periodicals and familiar faces into chat.children unaware of all the happenings around them.Added to that rains,puddles everywhere.Office goers were the worst hit..they had to travel very far distances shelling extra money.cannot compromise.life was torrid.juggling between home and office.To our relief it was called off in couple of days(CM out of India :( ) but hold on it is just temporary.negotiations are still going on with the officials and might go on strike in another three weeks.it is ultimately the common man who is affected.it is high time they realize the inconvinience caused to the common man and think about it seriously
overall it was one heck
