Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Government of the State is violating its own law to facilitate its parental organisation, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) by giving permission of the Path Sanchalan in the BRTS Corridor that is dedicated for plying buses.
Notably, as per the rules even the four wheelers and two wheelers are prohibited from moving in the BRTS corridor that is reserved by the administration for the public transport My Bus only. SDM BS Jamod accepted that the administration has given permission for using the BRTS because this is a Government programme.
