The Bengaluru Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) has recently made headlines for its innovative transformation of a scrapped bus. It converted the discarded vehicle into a mobile canteen for some of its employees. The initiative has received a lot of interest on social media and some people have applauded its efforts to make the most of resources available. A video shared by the BMTC on X (formerly Twitter) shows that the bus has an opening at the back. A long table runs along the middle of the bus, with bus seats arranged like chairs on either side.

There's also a small wash basin and mirror inside the vehicle. There's a small skylight on the roof, which would allow natural light inside the space during the day. In the caption of the post, the BMTC wrote, "Behold the Bojanan Bandi! From scrap vehicle to mobile canteen, witness the magic of transformation! Crafted with passion and pride by our skilled technical staff and officials. Let's celebrate innovation and indulge in culinary delights together!" Watch the complete clip below:
