In a recent update, the Himachal Road Transport Corporation (HRTC) has introduced 155 extra buses to manage the increased travel demand for Diwali. Starting from Tuesday, this service aims to offer a smoother and more comfortable travel experience during the festive season. Tickets for these buses are available online, allowing travelers to secure seats in advance and avoid last-minute rushes.

As part of this effort, HRTC will deploy 60 extra buses from Delhi on October 30, serving key districts like Palampur, Baijnath, Jogendranagar, Pathankot, and Dharamshala. Both standard and luxury buses will be available for routes to Dharamshala, offering passengers a choice of comfort levels. From Chandigarh, HRTC will run 70 extra buses on October 29 and 30, covering multiple destinations within Himachal Pradesh. On the first day, two buses each will serve areas like Chamba and Dharamshala. On October 30, four additional buses are planned for Bilaspur to ensure that travelers have ample options for reaching their homes or visiting loved ones during the holiday. Additionally, the town of Baddi will benefit from 25 extra buses on both days, providing enhanced travel convenience in that region.
