The commuters who daily travel between Islamabad and Rawalpindi, are facing problems due to non-compliance of route number 1, 2, 3, 21 and 127 by the public transporters.
The commuters complained that the public transporters did not ply their vehicle on routes and those who operate did not complete their routes.
The taxi drivers also keep their vehicles off the road and those who operate overcharge the passengers under the pretext of gas loadshedding.
