WB Govt takes steps to ensure safety of JNNURM bus passengers

The West Bengal Chief Minister Ms Mamata Banerjee has directed the transport department to take extra care towards safety of passengers plying in JNNURM buses.
Along with time to time maintenance of the buses, it is also decided these buses will undergo periodic fire audits. The fire and safety department has designated this task to a private institute.
The transport department will not only oversee that these measures are undertaken by various State owned transport agencies like CTC, CSTC and WBSTC, but also other private agencies which run JNNURM buses.
