Kurnool: Industries and commerce minister T.G. Bharat announced that the Kurnool RTC bus stand will be transformed into the state’s top bus station. The minister inaugurated two new super luxury buses and one ultra deluxe bus at the Kurnool-1 depot garage on Tuesday.

Bharat highlighted that 10 new buses have been introduced in the past, bringing the total to 13 new buses available at RTC depots. He also instructed the Regional Manager to prepare plans for constructing a convention hall, as the Kurnool RTC Bus Stand has ample land for such a project.
