KSRTC launches online hotel booking

Bangalore: If you plan to travel, you can now book hotels online through the new KSRTC website -- www.ksrtc.in -- that was

launched on Wednesday. The corporation has developed a software for booking hotels through private and e-booking services.

Many hotels in Bangalore, Mysore, Pondicherry and Mangalore have entered into agreement with KSRTC to use the online booking

service.

Transport principal secretary Upendra Tripathy said a state transport policy is in its planning stage. "Mobility is a

fundamental right. There should be 1,000 buses for every 10 lakh people," he said. "But for 4.5 crore population in

Karnataka, there are 20,000 buses maintained by four corporations and 7,000 private buses. The number should be 45,000

buses," he added.

Along with the launch of the website, Suvarna Karnataka tickets were also released. These tickets are valid for three or four

days and are ideal for short distance travel, such as in weekends. Passengers can buy the tickets online too.

The corporation has also launched a web portal to accommodate advertisements. The webpage will also offer news and other

information.
