Moodbidire: The KSRTC bus service between Mangalore-Moodubidire-Karkala will begin from December 11. This service was in high demand from the public, including students, along this route.

Due to the efforts of MLA Umanath Kotyan, the KSRTC had granted approval for the bus service, but it had been temporarily halted. However, now, permission has been granted for seven buses to operate daily, with four buses running 28 trips per day starting from December 11. This marks the fulfillment of a long-standing demand for regular bus services in the region.
