PUNE:
The PMPML will purchase buses to ferry passengers to their desired destinations from every metro station in Pune and some of them will be given to the Maha-Metro in a phase-wise manner, as confirmed by PMPML joint managing director Nitin Narvekar.
"The PMPML currently has 1,650 self-owned buses in its fleet. More buses are being purchased by us on a private basis. The demand for buses from the metro is huge. Therefore, a decision in this regard will be taken at the senior level and buses will be provided. Currently, buses have been ordered in phases and a joint meeting will be held soon to plan further," Narvekar said.
