KOCHI: A team of bus owners and employees organized a “charity drive” of sorts on Wednesday for raising funds for the treatment of a 21-year-old bus worker who met with an accident on the eve of the Independence Day.
As many as 26 city buses plying along the Pukkattupady-Ernakulam route provided ticketless journeys for the passengers on the day. The passengers were in turn requested to donate any amount they prefer to fund the treatment of Shyamjith, the bus employee. Buckets were provided in each bus so that the passengers could put their donations in it.
