1. The district bus service will run from 7.00 am to 7.00 pm. 
2. All buses to be provided for travel will be sterilized using proper sanitizer. 
3. Only 50% of the total capacity of the bus will be allowed to travel using social distance.
4. Senior citizens and children below 10 years will not be allowed to travel by bus. 
5. Each passenger and ST employee will have to use sanitizer before beginning their journey. 
6. Every passenger and ST employee must wear a face mask during the journey. 

The Minister appealed to the general public to co-operate with the ST Corporation to prevent the spread of Coronavirus by strictly abiding by the above terms and conditions.
