An incidence of a female conductor hitting an elderly woman was reported from Hubballi city on Friday, despite the state government issuing a circular instructing staff of the state-owned transport firms to act politely with female passengers. The event happened aboard a bus that was traveling from Kundgol to Hubballi. A 55-second video depicts the conductor and the elderly woman getting into a fight.

The conductor smacks the female passenger and tells her to be quiet as they continue to dispute. The elderly grandmother, however, vehemently opposes and smacks the conductor in the act. Co-travelers step up to show their support for the elderly woman. On social media, the incident's pictures and videos have become quite popular. Public outcry over the occurrence has led to the personnel of the state-owned transport businesses receiving negative press.

People all around the state are taking advantage of and appreciating the free travel program. 5.98 crore women used the shakti scheme's services between june 11 and june 22. The ladies have access to all areas of the state and can go up to 20 km into the bordering cities and villages of other states. According to the state government's official statement, the total cost of women passengers who rode on state-owned buses was Rs 139.53 crore.
