The bus lobby has succeeded again. The schedule is so inconvenient for everyone. Moreover it is starting from Mangalore junction, where the Rickshaw lobby is so strong that they prevent prepaid service from being operation. Please sir, start a night service train from Mangalore to Bangalore on this new route.
