Watch: Passenger Sits With Umbrella Inside Bus Due To Leaky Roof

Passengers are well aware of the condition of state-run buses in Uttar Pradesh. In the last few years, many new buses have also been introduced and many have been repaired; still, the buses are in a dilapidated condition. Sometimes the windows of the buses refuse to move; either they won’t open or won’t close. In these conditions, passengers face great difficulty in travelling in all seasons. While in summer people are troubled by the jammed window not opening, in winter people are forced to travel in cold air due to the window not closing. Last summer, a hilarious video went viral showing a passenger using a towel to protect himself from the heat.

Now in the monsoon, another video is making the rounds that shows a passenger sitting with an open umbrella inside the bus. The roadways bus was going from Banda in UP to Mahoba. When it rained during the journey, water started dripping from the roof of the bus. All the passengers got up and sat on the side. In the clip, women are also seen standing and protecting themselves from the water.

One of the passengers was travelling with an umbrella. In this situation, he opened his umbrella and sat under it to stay dry in the rain during the journey. When that passenger was sitting in the bus with an umbrella open, other passengers present in the bus made a video of this entire incident. The clip is going viral on social media. People are making various comments about the condition of the state-run buses.

After the video went viral, Banda-Chitrakoot Roadways Service Manager (SM) BK Maurya said that the viral video had been taken into cognizance. A clarification has been sought from the concerned employees immediately and an investigation is being conducted in the matter. He said that further action would be taken after the investigation.
