shortage of DTC bus service on route 611 and 398

We would like to draw your attention that on route Nos.611 & 398 there is acute shortage of service from Mayur Vihar Phase III to Dhaula Kuan, particularly in the morning hours between 6 AM and 10 AM.
We have registered many complaints with DTC complaint cell, PG cell for Chief Minister & Aapki Sunwai seeking to sort out this problem of the common man in the area who has no other means of transport. This shortage has taken crippling proportion in the past several months.
It is very surprising that buses coming from East Vinod Nagar Depot or elsewhere are not meant for these routes in the morning hours. On the other hand, there are plenty of buses ply on route no.211 (Phase-3 to Mori gate)& 493 from Mayur Vihar to Nehru Place .
We are fed up commuters who are forced to wait 1-2 hours for DTC services, and finally depend on three-wheelers and private buses to reach our offices. After increase in the bus fare it has become unviable to do the break journey as it will rob our pockets irreparably. We will end up spending Rs 25-35 instead of Rs.15 for the break journey. Now, we the public are preparing to take the matter to the media so that everybody understands the situation we are in.
The DTC Time Keeper posted at the bus stand in Mayur Vihar Phase III is on leave most of the days. When available he is most uncooperative and not even willing to listen genuine hardship faced by poor commuters of the area.
It is our, Mayur Vihar phase-3 resident’s, earnest request to you to kindly look into the matter personally and do the needful and get us sufficient buses in these routes at least in the morning hours (6 am to 10 am) for the service class.
We doubt that due to the threatening from the private/blueline bus operators, DTC drivers are not willing to take this route from the Vinod nagar depot. It may also be possible that the private/blueline operators are used to pay bribe to the depot managers for not to issue any bus in these routes during the morning hours.

  1. Apart of more buses on 611, 378, There should be more DTC buses on 118, 301, 211 for MV III. DTC, Donot be afaid of private local operator of blue line. You just do your duty. Hum Tumare Saath Hain.
    Also, there must be buses linking MV extension or New Ashok Nagar Metro and MV I metro with MVIII.
