Shimla, July 14

The Himachal Road Transport Corporation (HRTC) will offer 50 per cent discount on bus fare to women passengers even if tickets are booked online.

Earlier, HRTC was offering the discount only when the ticket was purchased by women passengers physically.

“The HRTC has enabled 50 per cent discount to women passengers in ordinary intra-state buses on HRTC advance reservation portal with effect from July 14,” said an HRTC spokesperson.

The spokesperson said that women passengers can book tickets of Himachal Road Transport Corporation ordinary intra-state buses in advance on HRTC website www.hrtchp.com by availing 50 per cent discount.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
