In the BRS party meeting held yesterday, KTR commented that women are using bus services for their daily cooking chores.
He also said, “We never said that people can’t do stitching or knitting on buses. We had no idea you were running buses for that purpose. All we asked was to increase the number of buses. Commission one bus per person if needed. We have no objection if women bring their entire families on board, stitch, knit, or even do recording dances.”
