According to the new notification released today, all inter-provincial, inter-city and inter-district passenger buses will be covered under the decision that they will only occupy 50 pc of the seats and ensure strict adherence to SOPs.
The SOPs include conditioning the travel with each passenger wearing a face mask, the ventilation system in place in each of the buses plying on the road, and awareness banners hung in the buses for precaustions.
