KARACHI: Sindh Transport and Mass Transit Department has directed the officials concerned to form monitoring committees to ensure strict implementation of fare structure, fixed for intercity buses on Eid-ul-Fitr.

In a handout issued here on Monday, it was stated that Eid-ul-Fitr is commencing within three weeks and people travel to their native areas to celebrate Eid.

But there is a trend during this period that the transporters increase fare at their own level causing extra burden on the travellers.
