After six years Tamil Nadu government has revised the bus fares and has brought into effect from January 20, 2018. Government has said that due to financial constraints they were forced to take this decision and have apologized to the people of Tamil Nadu. But still people are very badly disappointed with this huge revision and are protesting on streets on various parts of Tamil Nadu. It is to be noted that even Madras High Court has rejected today the PILs raised against this bus hike stating that they cannot interfere in government’s decision.
