Sale of Jet tickets to be suspended

By Our Special Correspondent

HYDERABAD, JAN. 8. The Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (APSRTC) has decided to temporarily suspend the sale of Jet tickets, following detection of a racket involved in circulating fake tickets. The sale of Jet tickets which enable the frequent passengers to travel anywhere in a week would be suspended with immediately effect.

According to corporation sources, the decision would enable the authorities to exhaust the validity of the already issued tickets. The Jet tickets introduced in 1998 had evoked good response from frequent travellers in the State. Two persons, one from Cuddapah and another from Hyderabad, were nabbed by the RTC officials at Imliban bus station on Sunday when they were trying to use fake Jet tickets. The Afzalgunj police are investigating the case.
