“We will operate the new CNG buses on a public private partnership (PPP) model, and also generate over Rs 16 crore as profit from operations of these buses,” Soni said.
He added that these buses will use bio-CNG produced at biomethanation plants of Indore Municipal Corporation to save fuel cost.
“We have also been awarded with the national award for excellence in urban transport recently,” Soni said.
These new buses will be of 32-seater mid-size model, and run on compressed natural gas (CNG). Each one of them will be equipped with CCTV surveillance cameras and have a GPS system.
