Kerala State Private Bus Operators Federation announced a march to the Secretariat on October 14, protesting the Priyadarshini free travel scheme. Operators claim the scheme lacks safeguards for private buses, causing financial crisis due to rising costs and insufficient earnings. They demand fare revisions, protection for affected employees, and withdrawal of the online-only timing conference order by the Transport Commissioner.
