RTC buses will sport a new colour in Telangana HYDERABAD: It will be hard to overlook RTC buses in Telangana in the coming days as the APSRTC is all set to paint its fleet in new colours.
Just a week after Transport Minister P Mahender Reddy's announcement to this effect, corporation officials reportedly submitted an interesting proposal - why not have a pink tint?
However, some officials, on condition of anonymity, admitted that though the proposal was made with the obvious intention of pleasing Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao, whose party the TRS sports pink colour, the chances of its acceptance aren't bright.
The chief minister at a meeting with RTC officials reviewed various colour combinations and compared them with colours of metro buses of around four countries.
'We included a colour with a tint of pink. However, going by the way the CM reviewed the colours, I think he will go for something else,' said one official. He added that some RTC buses were already sporting pink colour. 'Even if it is chosen, only a few will be coated with a combination of pink,' he said.
