The DTC has deployed over 200 senior officers, including chief general managers, deputy chief general managers and senior managers for the task.

Besides, regional managers, depot managers, deputy managers and other traffic supervisory staff will also be on the task to cover 46 points where they will take stock of their operations.

The officers will inspect the operation of the buses under several classifications — each bus’s schedule time, behaviour of its crew, issuance of tickets to all passengers.

“The officer concerned will also inspect the display of electronic boards, presentability of bus from inside and outside, working of time-keepers and the details of the staff those are performing duty without uniform,” said a senior DTC official on the condition of anonymity.
