Two days back the Mo Bus driver Biswanath Khatua made sure that the bag he found, which had Rs 49,500 cash in it, was returned to its rightful owner. Kathua, who works as a driver for “Mo Bus’’ employed with Traveltime, a company engaged by the Capital Region Urban Transport (CRUT) company to run “Mo Bus’’ was well appreciated for his honesty by the team.
The incident occurred on Wednesday, 26th June, when Khatua stumbled upon a bag lying unattended while returning his bus on Route No. 25 to Mancheswar terminal point. The incident took place at 9:00 am in the morning, and Khatua followed up for 2 and half hours to return the money. It can be mentioned here that the Route No. 25 of “Mo Bus’’ runs between Mancheswar and Dumduma and vice versa.
