@deceivingrbk @Lakkilakshman @BMTC_BENGALURU 😂😂😂 metro train waits and calls for passengers to get in and waits after that to issue tickets?? Man BMTC maybe mediocre but you are an idiot. At least BMTC is better than you. Thank god for small mercies.

Another day, another baffling experience with Bengaluru's public transport.

Today I boarded @BMTC_BENGALURU bus 500CA at Silk Board Metro. The bus waited for nearly 5 minutes to allow more passengers to board—which is absolutely fine.

What wasn't fine was the conductor spending those entire 5 minutes standing at the door calling passengers in instead of issuing tickets.

Once the bus started moving, ticketing began. With the next fare stage approaching and poor network near HSR Apartments, ticket issuance got delayed, leading to unnecessary frustration for both passengers and the conductor.

Had tickets been issued while the bus was stationary, the entire delay could have been avoided.

A genuine question: why should a conductor spend time inviting passengers into a bus that's already at a designated stop? If someone needed route information, the driver or even fellow passengers could have assisted.

Wouldn't the conductor's time be better spent issuing tickets and keeping the service moving efficiently? @ChristinMP_ @ever_pessimist @bengalurupost1 @BMTC_BENGALURU

@deceivingrbk @NiranjanC70085 @BMTC_BENGALURU Kerala transport is horrible. I want BMTC/KSRTC to go from mediocre to world class, that’s my wish for my city, maybe you don’t have that wish, but I do and I have all rights to ask for it.

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

@ForCrowne @BMTC_BENGALURU At least I have a brain, which you clearly don’t. Can’t even come up with an original quip. Useless.

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

@TarunCNaidu4 @BMTC_BENGALURU Racist alert ☝🏽

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

@isvarguru @Brownhitey If you can’t understand Kannada, I can’t help you with that. Go for classes, spend money there at least.

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

@isvarguru @Brownhitey Talk too much and then don’t follow thru, that is classic cheap beggar. Hogo, nin appan dhuddu nanage Beda. Nin athra illa antha nanage gothu. Take the last word, your ego needs the massage. I don’t give a shit of what you think.

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

@vyasasrini @BMTC_BENGALURU Agree 👍🏽

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

@Linus1291 @isvarguru Change it to account to based in India then.

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

@isvarguru @Brownhitey There comes the word salad. I knew this would happen, so predictable these cheapasses are.

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

@Linus1291 @isvarguru Account based in “South Asia” hmmm I wonder why??!! Not even proud enough to put it as account based in India. And he’s talking to me about my country. Get a life!!

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

So it’s the conductors job to bring more revenue to BMTC and meet targets by acting like sales people? Aren’t we asking too much from the conductors? I never questioned the conductor, I am questioning the management. It’s their responsibility to move more people and figure out ways to do that without affecting the public in adverse manners and not overload a conductor.

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

@Linus1291 @isvarguru I didn’t bring my surname into the debate, the racist guy assumed I am not from Karnataka because of my surname. Otherwise why would he ask me to go back to Kerala?? Care to take a guess?

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

It’s at 10.30 a.m and I didn’t have a problem with the conductor waiting for other passengers, I clarified that. The issue was that all that wait time was not used to issue tickets. The wait was after we started and moving ahead for a KM and then the bus stopped and was waiting for 10 mins to issue tickets.

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

@isvarguru @Brownhitey I knew you were a Cheapass and you would try to get out of paying despite first offering it. Put your money where your mouth is racist.

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

@Rajashekar1234 @BMTC_BENGALURU No, because it’s not the conductors fault. I do not want to belittle them in public when it’s not their fault. It’s a management issue. Their hands are tied. I truly believe that.

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

@itstheYOGI @BMTC_BENGALURU Nin appan dhudda?? Neen yeno lecture kodthiya!! Yogi anthe yogi……. A racist like you cannot be using that name.

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

@dipunair @BMTC_BENGALURU Ok sir. 🫡

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

If you can afford it, pay the money. Since you earn so much, help the city by getting rid of me. Now let’s see you come with a word salad to avoid paying. Cheapass racist. I only have my surname written, you are the one who decided to make it a reason for me not to live in a city that I was born in and spent 42 years of my life. Who’s the racist is easy to determine.

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

@unsekoolar @ggganeshh Conductors have been given targets. Go check it. It will take you barely 2 mins. Do the research before calling names.

[Pravith Nair @pravithnair]

@anil_lulla @BMTC_BENGALURU 😂😂 didn’t expect the overflow sir. But disturbed also, didn’t expect people to turn on me because of my surname. They just assume I came from kerala yesterday. 😕 And that I am complaining because somehow they assume I don’t like Bengaluru.
