Passengers with disabilities will henceforth be given reserved seats on all types of buses run by the state transport body and it will be the responsibility of the carrier to provide them the seats once they board the bus, the Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation (MSRTC) said in a press release on Thursday.

With a view to make the journey of persons with disabilities more comfortable, MSRTC has issued a circular fixing the reservation of seats for them on different types of buses operated by it. MSRTC has instructed local ST administrations to reserve their reserved seats only for disabled passengers, from ordinary to Shivneri buses.
