KSRTC is now available for new generation celebrations such as ‘Save the Date’ and ‘Photo Shoot’. Ganesh, a native of Vamanapuram, and Lakshmi, a native of Inchakal, who are engaged to be married on January 18, 2021, were the first to do a Save the Date photo shoot.
The service can be availed over a distance of 50 km at a rent of Rs 4,000 for eight hours. Additional rent must be paid for the extra kilometers. The discounted rate is set for until December. The scheme is being implemented on a special commission basis for agents and those who book in advance.
This scheme was formulated and implemented by KSRTC for the purpose of increasing the non-ticket revenue of the corporation. The bus will be rented for wedding, pre-wedding, post-wedding shoots and parties, including birthdays.
Those who rent it get the opportunity for celebrations on the second floor of the bus and travel with family on the ground floor. KSRTC is implementing this project on the model of Afternoon Tea Bus Tour in London. Several agencies have already booked buses for the photo shoot in Thiruvananthapuram. If successful, the KSRTC project will be extended to Kochi and Kozhikode.
