abstract: 'In this research paper described the impact of women free bus operation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in Tamil Nadu State transport corporation (TNSTC) in Tamil Nadu. After
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the government''s announcement of free bus travel for all women, most of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the women passengers are likely to shift from private to government
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
buses. Women who are travelling through other modes of transport may
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
also prefer to travel by government buses. As per the ITDP survey, 77\%
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of women transit by walk, cycle and public transport. Either they lost a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
job as they couldn''t afford to travel long-distance anymore due to bus
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
fare hike. Many chose to work nearby their home for lower wages, hence,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
it results in lower household income, income disparity, labour shortage,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gender discrimination, domestic violence, a lower standard of living,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
lower accessibility and availability. In one word-socio and economic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
loss of the household and to the state in general. Result in free bus
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
operation give multiple benefits across the state both in terms of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
standard of livelihood and affordability, as well as raise in per capita
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
income per women.The main intention behind this scheme is to increase
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the work participation rate of women and promote public transportation.'
