Our campaign for sustainable transport continues!! शहर आहेत माणसांसाठी, नाहीत मोटार गाड्यांसाठी! #votefortekdi #voteforbus @PMPMLPune requires support of the @PMCPune to operate an efficient bus service in Pune. Let's use the upcoming local elections to push for good bus service! Ask the candidates their solutions for commuters and cast your vote for a candidate who can assure good bus service. Vote wisely, ride comfortably. #SaveVetalTekdi #ScrapBBPP #ScrapHCMTR #ScrapTwinTunnels #SupportPublicTransport @FollowSPTM @parisarpune

Punekars please vote wisely in the PMC elections! Ask your candidate whether they agree with Vijay or Ravi 🙃 Do we need more flyovers, underpasses, elevated roads, especially those like the Balbharati road that comes at the cost of our precious green spaces?  Or do we need a better public transport system that will not only preserve Vetal tekdi, but is the only long term solution to decongesting urban traffic? @sumedh_bp

For all those who say to us - "you are always against roads and tunnels through the tekdi, how are we to move in the city???" Listen! PMC has always been so stingy when it comes to spending on building @PMPMLPune and increasing buses, but when it comes to a Rs 300 crore on a 2.1 km road that will destroy our water recharge, our green open space, our unique Puneri identity, our Tekdi then suddenly budget is no constraint!! So #votetekdi #votebus to get our politicos to make our bus services more convenient so that just like the @metrorailpune commuters will happily switch from personal vehicles to buses, safer commutes, and less vehicles on the roads- there's your Win-Win solution for the city! @savepunetraffic @parisarpune @harshadsustrans @prancd

You’ll hear many more sophisticated arguments for why the Electric Vehicle revolution is imminent. But this simple narrative about why this gentleman switched to the ⁦@MahindraElctrc⁩ Treo is direct & powerful. And you don’t need to know Punjabi to grasp his sentiments!

A2. Pune PMPML bus service issues: poor frequency, unclean buses, over crowding, poor reliability #MahaBus50 Get more, better and clean buses @PMCPune @pcmcindiagovin @CMOMaharashtra
