State Transport Minister Amrinder Singh Raja Warring on Tuesday exposed hooliganism of employees of private bus operators, who were threatening drivers and conductors of government buses at the Inter-State Bus Terminus, Sector 43, Chandigarh.
On the minister’s direction, a private bus was impounded and employees of the private operator were handed over to the police. Warring said a driver of Punbus Volvo bus, which was en route to Ludhiana-Sri Muktsar Sahib, called him up saying employees of Jujhar Transport Company were creating nuisance by stopping the bus and disembarking passengers.
“After getting the call, I immediately rushed to the spot and called the police,” said the minister, adding he asked the police to impound the bus of Jujhar Transport Company and arrest the erring employees of the private company.
“No private operator would be allowed to create a ruckus. If any person is found indulging in such an act, strict legal action would be initiated against him,” said the minister.
