It has been seven years since the last new buses were added to the Delhi fleet. Now, with a new study finding that the Delhi metro is the second most expensive system in the world, the lack of more buses on the roads is all the more stinging. The Delhi government sanctioned Rs. 150 crores for acquiring new buses in 2018-19, giving a nod for 2,000 new buses in October last year and then clearing a successful tender for 1,000 new buses in May this year. However, not a single bus has been put on the roads yet.
