HRTC Nahan depot faces acute tyre shortage; over 15 routes suspended

Nahan, Oct 16 (UNI) The Nahan Depot of the Himachal Road Transport Corporation (HRTC) in Sirmaur district, once regarded as one of the corporation’s most profitable depots, is now grappling with a severe shortage of tyres, leaving buses off the roads, that has reportedly forced around 12 buses to remain idle for the past three days, disrupting public transport services and leading to the suspension of more than 15 routes.
The buses are being operated on approximately two dozen routes through clubbed operations. If the situation continues, passenger difficulties may increase in the coming days.
This is not the first instance of buses being stopped at the Nahan Depot. The depot has been grappling with persistent disruptions for the past few years.
