Commuters give heartfelt farewell to bus crew on NICE-8 route
Bengaluru: In a rare and heartwarming gesture, a group of daily commuters on Bengaluru Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) route NICE-8 came together to bid farewell to their trusted bus driver and conductor, who were transferred to another route by BMTC.
On Thursday, before the start of their journey from Nelamangala to Electronics City, the passengers organised a small ceremony at the bus stop. The duo were honoured with shawls, garlands, and sweets in appreciation of their dedicated service.
Passengers felicitated driver Sanoth Kumar and conductor Surendra before the trip began. Maruthi A H, a regular commuter, said, "We are grateful for the reliable service on NICE-8.
The driver and conductor were part of our daily commute for over a year, safely ferrying passengers during each scheduled trip. Recently, they received orders from higher-ups deputing them to different routes. In recognition of their service and as a token of gratitude, passengers on our route came together to felicitate the crew.
They too were touched by the warm farewell given by the passengers and expressed their happiness.
