Private bus owners’ hunger strike in Keralam to enter 4th day on Oct. 30; agitation to expand to other districts
Private bus owners in Kerala have been on hunger strike for four days, demanding protection of their industry amid the KSRTC free travel scheme. The protest, which began on Oct. 27, seeks changes to the scheme and better support for operators. Organizers plan to expand the strike to other districts if demands remain unmet today.
