Government Bus Service Between Delhi and Bihar Planned Ahead of Chhath Festival
Authorities are planning to launch a new government-operated bus service connecting Delhi and Bihar. Officials have identified 18 potential routes to improve connectivity before the upcoming Chhath festival.
The Delhi and Bihar state governments are currently working to establish a government-run bus service to facilitate travel between the two regions. While private bus operators currently service this route, there is currently no state-sponsored public transportation option available for commuters.
According to reports, officials have already identified 18 specific routes that would connect various parts of Delhi with cities in Bihar. The primary goal of this initiative is to provide a more reliable and regulated travel option for the large number of people who travel between these regions, particularly during the Chhath festival, a period that typically sees a massive surge in passenger traffic.
While the project is in the planning stages, the introduction of government buses is expected to offer a more affordable and structured alternative to the existing private services. No official date for the launch has been confirmed, but the target remains to have the service operational before the festival begins. The initiative reflects an ongoing effort to address the logistical challenges faced by migrants and travelers who frequently move between the national capital and Bihar.
