Shimla, July 19: To recover HRTC from loss, the corporation is cutting its expenses and work is being done to increase the sources of income. HRTC has not stopped the 50% discount given to women nor has it increased the minimum fare in any way. This was said by Deputy CM Mukesh Agnihotri after the HRTC BOD meeting held in Shimla State Secretariat.
Mukesh Agnihotri said that there was an intense discussion in the HRTC BOD on reducing the expenses of HRTC and increasing the income. Apart from this, the facilities being given to women have neither been withdrawn nor the minimum fare has been increased. Mukesh Agnihotri said that we cannot look at our expenses from the perspective that we are working in loss.
Himachal is a welfare state and the government has responsibilities towards the public.
On conductor recruitment, Mukesh Agnihotri said that for the first time conductors have been recruited under the Public Service Commission, appointments will be given soon.
Driver recruitment which was pending for a long time will also be done. There will be complete transparency in the recruitment and appointments will be made on the basis of merit.
