In an attempt to ease the financial strain on both rural and urban commuters, the Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TSRTC) has announced a key policy change. The corporation will now make the T-9 ticket available to women and senior citizens travelling on the Palle Velugu bus. TSRTC already offers the T-24, T-6, and F-24 tickets to commuters in greater Hyderabad, and the introduction of the T-9 ticket marks the first time that the corporation has expanded its ticket options specifically with rural and urban passengers in mind. Priced at Rs 100, the T-9 ticket includes an exemption on toll gate charges. This new policy, as per TSRTC, is set to provide significant savings for travelers. According to the company's announcement, passengers could save between Rs 20 and Rs 40 per journey using this new ticket.
