On June 10, 2025, Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) MLC K. Kavitha led a protest at Bus Bhavan, RTC X Roads, Hyderabad, against the recent hike in Telangana RTC bus fares. Joined by Telangana Jagruthi activists, Kavitha criticized the Congress government for imposing additional financial burdens on the common man, particularly low-income groups reliant on public transport. The protesters demanded an immediate rollback of the fare hike, arguing it contradicts the government’s promises of affordable public services. The demonstration saw police detaining several activists, escalating tensions. The fare hike has sparked widespread debate, with opposition parties accusing the Congress of neglecting its pre-election welfare commitments. The government has not yet issued an official response to the protests, leaving commuters awaiting clarity.
