Official sources told PTI that in its advisory, the Ministry has apprised the state governments of the need to increase safety features in the buses as the December 16 incident in the capital has highlighted the need to increase safety features in public transport systems.
The ministry has also suggested that video-cameras should be installed in public transport systems and the recordings should be kept for at least 48 hours.
Besides security issues, the advisory also stresses on the need to increase passenger comfort in buses.
