Wanaparthy: The people commuting to and from Kollapur and Wanaparty are facing tough time due lack of adequate buses. Even though, the 50 kilometers of road stretch between Wanaparthy and Kollapur mandals has two RTC depots of Kollapur and Wanparthy, the public along this stretch are not having a single bus due to which they have to wait for more than 4-5 hours at the bus stops.

When contacted with the controller of Wanparthy bust depot, he said the Kollapur depot officials are not allowing the buses of Wanaparthy depot as they want to ply their buses on this route. However, they are not able to maintain the time schedule of the buses and behaving indifferent to the public.

"Earlier buses would be plied every half an hour regularly on this route from Wanaparthy dept, but after formation of Kolapur depot they have taken it over. But unfortunately, they are not maintaining the bus schedule properly. We are not able to answer the public as we ourself are uncertain about the bus timings of Kollapur depot," said the controller at Wanparthy bus depot.

The people of more than one hundred small and big villages are also of the opinion that though they thought that after formation of Kollapur depot, more buses would on the route and people of backward areas between Kollapur and Wanaparthy would get better and faster transportation facilities with more frequency of buses, however, the present situation prevailing is in contrast to the people's hopes. When tried to contact the Kollapur depot manager he was not available for comments.

Overall, the public of villages enroute Kollapur and Wanaparthy which includes Goplapur, Pangal, Kethepally, Tellarallapally, Korlakunta, Narsaiahpally and Singotam villages are demanding the RTC managements of both depots must run buses every half an hour and ensure better transportation services to the public.
