Brakes on pvt buses in BRT corridor likely

Delhi government is planning to ban private buses on the BRT corridor. According to sources, the move follows yesterday's accident on the corridor, in which a security guard was killed by a private bus. So far 10 accidents have been reported on the BRT corridor and out of them six had taken place this month. Only one of the cases involved a DTC bus. According to a senior official of the transport department, the drivers of private buses are not disciplined and they drive in a rash and negligent manner.
