"Out of the 4,000 buses, 1,383 buses are planned from Hyderabad, 277 from Bangalore, 97 from Chennai and the remaining 2,243 buses are planned for clearance of traffic from different points within the state of Andhra Pradesh," the APSRTC Managing Director said as quoted by the Deccan Chronicle.

However, Tirumala Rao said that the bus charges levied will be 1.5 times higher than the normal time. Else, the state road transport will face severe losses if the prices are not hiked. "During the festivals, the buses are populated only on one side of the journey. So we will face losses if not for the higher charges. I request people to understand our problem," the report further said quoting Tirumala Rao.
