Suspension of Government Bus Service between Coimbatore and Guruvayur

The government bus service recently started between Guruvayur and Coimbatore was halted without prior notice. Initiated on March 13 and temporarily stopped on April 8 due to weather, it is now fully discontinued.


Coimbatore: A recently initiated government bus service connecting Coimbatore with Guruvayur has been unexpectedly terminated. Launched on March 13, this bus service was initially paused temporarily on April 8 due to adverse weather conditions, however, it has now been completely stopped. The abrupt cessation was announced without prior notice, leading to speculation and dissatisfaction among the passengers.

The passengers' association at Kozhinjamparai has accused certain private bus companies of sabotage leading to the suspension of this service. Complaints have been lodged against the Kerala Transport Minister, the Director of Kerala Transport Department, and the Chief Operating Director, by the bus passengers’ association.

Further insights from the Kerala Transport Department suggest that the expected revenue from this service did not materialize, which might have influenced the decision to halt the service permanently.
