He also stated that the federal government will revoke premits of private buses which are found to be ferrying goods illegally when the allow is for passenger shipping. "Their permit will be immediately cancelled and the vehicle will be seized. More than violation of traffic rules, we are treating it as a safety threat," stated Raote. He also added that the if it is found that ST buses are wearing unlawful parcels, the motive force and conductor might be in an instant transferred to every other district. "If they are found to be doing this again, they will be directly sacked," stated Raote on Monday.
