What takes precedence: More buses or better access? 🚌♿️ We’re inching closer to the "Golden Number" of 60 buses/lakh pop, but poor accessibility remains an issue. Does fleet size trump accessibility, or is it time to design for the most vulnerable first? #PMeBusSewa #GUMI

.@amitbhatt4u @TheICCT in a story by @Moreorleshphil @livemint, said: livemint.com/auto-news/auto… “Central government schemes are largely targeting the urban bus segment, which makes up only about 2% of the overall bus market. The big question is how to extend electrification to the remaining 98% of the bus market.” The affordability of these components for Indian manufacturers can only be realized through economies of scale, which requires generating robust demand for e-buses. @bhaumikgowande @pradeep_revathy

🚍#ICCTStudy by @bhaumikgowande & @pradeep_revathy from @TheICCT finds nearly one-third of Delhi lacks access to formal bus services leaving thousands of residents underserved Here’s what this means for #UrbanMobility ⬇️

.@down2earthindia latest article covers findings from @TheICCT study authored by @bhaumikgowande & @pradeep_revathy 🔗downtoearth.org.in/air/how-india-… The study has revealed that although 6 in 10 daily trips in #Delhi are under 4 km, city’s #PublicTransport system continues to be dominated by long-route buses that are ill-suited for short-distance #UrbanMobility

Neighborhood level #bus services offer a smart solution to mobility gaps by making public transport more accessible, reducing #congestion & connecting more people to the larger transit network Read more about the study by @bhaumikgowande @pradeep_revathy theicct.org/publication/ne…

Published work on Transit accessibility in Delhi. The paper dwells into how newer systems such as the DEVI bus service could aid in improvement of overall public transport efficiency in the city. Paper available on @TheICCT website.

🚍 31% of #Delhi’s neighborhoods lack access to a bus stop within 500m, says @theicct India study featured in @IndianExpress. The work by @bhaumikgowande & @pradeep_revathy shows the urgent need for local, high-frequency bus services. indianexpress.com/article/cities… @drpankajbjp

Republic of Colombia is a South American country with roughly the population of our Andhra Pradesh. There are Colombian illegal immigrants in the US and Trump deported them. Colombia’s President Gustavo Petro refused to accept two U.S. military planes with migrants, prompting Mr. Trump to threaten 25% tariffs on Colombian exports and other sanctions. Colombia then relented and said it would accept the migrants, but fly them on Colombian military flights that Mr. Petro said would guarantee them dignity. “Migrants are not criminals,” Mr. Petro wrote. “They are human beings who want to work and get ahead in life.” Entire BJP leadership is good in flexing muscles in front of the poor and powerless. They run bulldozers on people who can't fight back. When they see the mighty and powerful, the bow and show their servitude. This is not courage. This is cowardice! So Savarkarious!
