Mysuru commuters are protesting the Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation's (KSRTC) use of older Bengaluru Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) buses for city services. Residents claim these buses are in poor condition, uncomfortable, and contribute to air pollution, with some still bearing BMTC logos and emitting thick smoke. Commuters allege discrimination, stating Mysuru deserves new, eco-friendly vehicles like those in Bengaluru, while KSRTC officials state the refurbished buses aim to improve public transport in smaller cities.
