The minister wrote a letter to the officer and demanded action
Minister of Karnataka Government of Karnataka Ramalinga Reddy has also written a letter to the managing director of NWKRTC Hubli in this case. In this letter, he wrote, ‘On the evening of 29 April, a video has gone viral in the media about the driver-cum-conductor of NWKRTC, who was offering prayers on the way between Hubli to Haweeri. Employees working in public service compulsorily follow certain rules and regulations. Even though everyone has the right to follow any religion, they can do so except office time. Despite having passengers in the bus, it is objectionable to stop the bus by stopping the bus on the middle way.
The minister wrote in the letter, ‘It is directed to conduct immediate investigation of the said viral video and take disciplinary action against the employees if found guilty. Action should be taken to prevent recurrence of such incidents in the future.
