THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The finance department has released Rs 1.05 crore to buy a new bus from the Benz company for taking the chief minister and his cabinet colleagues across the state to participate in the 36-day-long Nava Kerala Sadas starting from Manjeshwar in Kasaragod on November 18.
The bus will arrive in Kasaragod after necessary alterations on Saturday. Although there is a treasury restriction on fund release, it took the finance department no time to process the request from the KSRTC MD on behalf of K SWIFT for allocating Rs 1,05,20,000 for the procurement of a new custom-built bus. The 25-seater bus is equipped with restrooms and washrooms for the CM and 21 ministers. Transport minister Antony Raju has dismissed allegations that the purchase of the bus was an extravagant spending.
“News reports about the arrival of the bus from Bengaluru are baseless. If around 75 pilot and escort vehicles are used for the travel of 21 ministers, it will be an extravaganza. However, if the 25-seater bus is used, there will be no extravagant spending. If a single bus is used to visit 140 assembly constituencies, it would save a lot of money.
Currently, KSRTC is successfully operating SWIFT Volvo buses that cost `Rs 1.38 crore. This is not the first time the KSRTC is purchasing Benz vehicles. It could also be used for budget tourism once the Nava Kerala Sadas is over,” he said.
Meanwhile, Leader of Opposition V D Satheesan accused the government of splurging public money for the statewide travel of the CM and ministers. Former leader of Opposition Ramesh Chennithala in a statement said that only a dictator like Pinarayi Vijayan could conduct such an extravagant travel when the state is going through a difficult phase.

Kozhikode: Days after the Kerala government splashed crores to host the Keraleeyam event, the state plans to conduct 'Nava Kerala Sadas' in full grandeur despite facing a severe financial crisis.
In yet another instance of extravagant spending, the government has approved over Rs 1 crore for a specially designed bus for official government use. Starting from November 18, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and other cabinet ministers will utilise the vehicle to participate in events associated with the government's statewide outreach initiative. According to latest reports, the bus has been entrusted to KSRTC, and will have 25 seats and equipped with onboard restroom facilities.
The fund was sanctioned by the Finance Department despite severe restrictions placed by the treasury.
KSRTC MD Biju Prabhakar requested Rs 1,05,20,000 from the finance department on behalf of K-SWIFT on September 22. After carefully reviewing the request, the department decided to allocate the funds.
However, Transport Minister Antony Raju dismissed reports that the government is buying a luxurious bus. He stated that the bus will be used for tourism in the future. The move is aimed at preventing the requirement for additional pilot vehicles and security personnel for each minister during the event.

സ്വന്തം ലേഖകന്, 16 november 2023, 04:49 pm ist, അനുമതിയില്ലാതെ യാത്ര ചെയ്യുന്നത് കണ്ടെത്തിയാല് ബസുകളുടെ ഫിറ്റ്നെസും ഡ്രൈവറുടെ ലൈസന്സും റദ്ദാക്കും..
പ്രതീകാത്മക ചിത്രം | ഫോട്ടോ: മാതൃഭൂമി
അ നുമതി വാങ്ങാതെ ടൂറിസ്റ്റ് ബസില് വിനോദയാത്ര പോവുന്ന വിദ്യാലയങ്ങള്ക്കെതിരേ നടപടി കര്ശനമാക്കാനൊരുങ്ങി മോട്ടോര് വാഹനവകുപ്പ്. വിനോദയാത്രയ്ക്ക് രണ്ടു ദിവസം മുമ്പെങ്കിലും അപേക്ഷ നല്കി ബസിന്റെ പരിശോധന പൂര്ത്തിയാക്കണമെന്നാണ് വകുപ്പ് നിഷ്കര്ഷിക്കുന്നത്.
യാത്രയ്ക്ക് മണിക്കൂറുകള് മാത്രം ബാക്കിനില്ക്കെയാണ് പലരും അപേക്ഷ നല്കുന്നത്. അപ്പോള് ബസ് പരിശോധിക്കാന് ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥര്ക്ക് സമയം ലഭിക്കാതെവരും. അതോടെ അനുമതി വാങ്ങാതെ യാത്ര തുടരുന്നതാണ് പലരുടെയും രീതി. ചിലരാകട്ടെ, അപേക്ഷമാത്രം നല്കി അനുമതിയില്ലാതെ യാത്ര പോവുന്നുമുണ്ട്.
ജില്ലയ്ക്ക് പുറത്തുള്ള ബസുകള് തിരഞ്ഞെടുക്കുന്നവര് യാത്രയ്ക്ക് തൊട്ടുമുമ്പാണ് അവ സ്കൂള് പരിധിയിലുള്ള മോട്ടോര് വാഹനവകുപ്പ് ഓഫീസിലെത്തിക്കുക. അപേക്ഷപോലും നല്കാതെ പോകുന്നവരുമുണ്ടെന്നും അവസാനനിമിഷം യാത്ര തടയുമ്പോള് അത് വൈകാരികപ്രശ്നമാകുന്നുവെന്നും അധികൃതര് പറയുന്നു.
രണ്ടുവര്ഷംമുമ്പ് ഒമ്പതുപേര് മരിച്ച പാലക്കാട് വടക്കഞ്ചേരി അപകടത്തിനുശേഷമാണ് യാത്രയ്ക്കുമുമ്പ് മോട്ടോര് വാഹനവകുപ്പിന്റെ അനുമതി വേണമെന്ന നിബന്ധന വന്നത്. എറണാകുളത്ത് അനുമതി നേടാതെ യാത്രക്കൊരുങ്ങിയ നാലു ബസുകള് കഴിഞ്ഞ ദിവസം മോട്ടോര് വാഹനവകുപ്പ് പിടിച്ചെടുത്തിരുന്നു.
വിനോദയാത്രയ്ക്കുള്ള വിദ്യാര്ഥികളുടെയും അധ്യാപകരുടെയും വിവരങ്ങളും യാത്രയുടെയും വാഹനത്തിന്റെയും വിവരങ്ങളും സഹിതമാണ് മോട്ടോര് വാഹനവകുപ്പിന് അപേക്ഷ നല്കേണ്ടത്. നിരോധിത ലൈറ്റുകളോ ശബ്ദസംവിധാനങ്ങളോ ഉപയോഗിച്ചിട്ടുണ്ടോ, സ്പീഡ് ഗവര്ണര് വിേച്ഛദിച്ചിട്ടുണ്ടോ, ജി.പി.എസ്. പ്രവര്ത്തനക്ഷമമാണോ തുടങ്ങിയവ പരിശോധിച്ചാണ് സാക്ഷ്യപത്രം നല്കുക.
നടപടി ഇങ്ങനെ
അനുമതിയില്ലാതെ യാത്ര ചെയ്യുന്നത് കണ്ടെത്തിയാല് ബസുകളുടെ ഫിറ്റ്നെസും ഡ്രൈവറുടെ ലൈസന്സും റദ്ദാക്കും. സ്കൂള് മേധാവിക്കെതിരേ വകുപ്പുതലനടപടിക്കായി വിദ്യാഭ്യാസവകുപ്പിനോട് ശുപാര്ശ ചെയ്യും.
