- RTC discount Hyderabad applies to metro AC and deluxe buses
- Passengers advised to avoid fuel queues and use RTC buses
Hyderabad, March 25: The RTC has announced a 30 percent fare discount for passengers in Hyderabad. The move comes amid reports of petrol and diesel shortage. The offer applies to metro AC and deluxe buses operating within the city limits.
However, the RTC discount Hyderabad aims to encourage more people to use public transport. Officials said the decision will help ease pressure on fuel demand. It will also reduce long queues at petrol bunks across the city.
Meanwhile, RTC Managing Director Nagi Reddy addressed the situation and urged citizens to rely on buses. He said, “Why is it a problem to have petrol problems when there are RTC buses? He advised people not to queue at the bunks and to travel safely by bus.”
Further, the RTC discount Hyderabad is expected to provide relief to daily commuters. Many passengers depend on private vehicles. Therefore, the discount may help shift some of them to public transport. This could also improve traffic flow during the ongoing fuel concerns.
At the same time, the offer is limited to metro AC and deluxe services. These buses operate widely across Hyderabad. Hence, passengers can access the benefit on several routes within the city.
In addition, the announcement comes at a time when concerns about fuel availability have led to panic among some motorists. RTC officials have tried to address these concerns by promoting bus travel as a safe and reliable option.
Later, officials reiterated that public transport remains a practical alternative during such situations. The RTC discount Hyderabad is part of this effort to ensure smooth travel for residents.
The development highlights the role of public transport in managing urban challenges. By offering fare reductions, the RTC aims to support commuters while reducing dependence on private fuel usage.
