Bangalore:  If the prices are not increased, the industry will be hit. The total diesel price will increase and the toll price has also increased. The state president of private bus owners said that the increase in bus ticket prices is inevitable to cover the cost.

In this expensive world, people are suffering from a series of price increases. After milk, electricity, diesel, gas, and metro, the price of private bus tickets will also increase. It has been learned that bus owners across the state (Karnataka) have decided to increase the price of private buses. Using their special opportunity, they are considering increasing the price by one to three rupees per ticket.

About 8,000 buses from 18 districts will come under this scope, which will again hit the pockets of passengers. Private bus prices are increasing in the wake of the diesel price increase. Due to the increase in diesel prices, each private bus will incur a burden of 15 to 18 thousand rupees. Therefore, the increase in ticket prices is inevitable, said Kuyladi Suresh Nayak, state president of the Private Bus Owners' Association.
