Guwahati Faces Public Transportation Crisis Amidst Election Season

Guwahati, heavily reliant on public transportation, is grappling with a shortage of buses due to their utilization in election-related events. While some buses are seized for official election duties, many are deployed for campaigns and rallies. This shortage disrupts the daily commute of students, workers, and citizens, causing delays and inconvenience. Long-distance travelers to and from Guwahati also feel the impact. With the third phase of polling approaching on May 7, the city anticipates continued transportation challenges until then.
