Watch: Chandigarh man hangs from bus door for 1 km after driver, conductor refuse him in

The UT Transport Department has placed the services of a bus driver and a conductor under suspension for irresponsible behaviour.

In a video that went viral on social media, a passenger was seen hanging from the door of a bus. Neither the driver stopped the bus, nor did the conductor open the door.

The department received the video as well as a complaint from the passenger. The complainant stated that he was standing at Hallomajra bus stop to board a bus for going to office on route number 85.

Bus number CH-01-GA-5367 came, but the driver and conductor did not allow him to board the bus. Due to this, he had to hang near the door and he travelled like this for about a kilometer.

The department said the passenger’s life was put in danger and in such a condition he could have received serious injuries. Following this, driver Karamveer and conductor Binu Rani have been placed under suspension and removed from duty with immediate effect.
