Free Bus In AP From Aug 15th

One of the hallmark pre-poll announcements from Chandrababu Naidu as a part of the super six program is the free RTC rides for women program. Now that the TDP+ government is in power, there was a lot of anticipation on when this program will actually come to effect in AP. 

In a flashing development, it is being reported that the government of Andhra Pradesh has locked the muhurtham for the implementation of this mass outreach program.

As per reports, Andhra Pradesh finance minister Anagani Satya Prasad has announced that the free RTC rides for women program will come to effect from the 15th of August, coinciding with the occasion of Independence Day.

This will essentially mean that the TDP government is bringing this program to effect two months after coming to power, which is a fairly efficient period of time.

While this program was already in effect in the neighbouring states of Telangana and Karnataka, there was scepticism on when it would commence in AP. It appears that this mass-friendly program would be commencing in exactly a month from now. 

This is the first time in Andhra Pradesh that free bus ride program is being implemented.
