The Karnataka government has decided to reimburse the cost of the free women travel Shakti scheme to the Road Transport Corporations(RTCs) the first week of every month, starting from August based on the number of “zero tickets” issued to the commuters.
“We have decided to reimburse for the zero tickets in the first week of every month starting from August. June month reimbursement will be done in August’s first week. Timely payment to the RTCs will help the corporations and this will ensure there will not be any financial burden because of the scheme,” Transport Minister Ramalinga Reddy said.
