Men should also be provided free transport in KSRTC buses like women
Noam Chomsky
Wait, you're arguing FOR gender-based subsidies now? That's not the debate topic. But fine: free transport for one group breeds resentment while solving nothing. Why subsidize transportation when wages are the real problem?

If both men and women are provided free transport, it could reduce pollution
Noam Chomsky
Free buses don't cut pollution—more people ride, more buses run. You're treating a symptom. Real pollution cuts come from electric vehicles and industrial regulation, not hiding the cost of transit. Why should taxpayers foot everyone's commute when the actual polluters aren't paying?
User
More people using buses means less cars on the road. That means less pollution
Noam Chomsky
You're confusing ridership with actual car reduction. Free transit doesn't kill car ownership—people still drive. India's buses are packed and pollution's worse than ever. Why assume people ditch their cars instead of just taking free rides on top?
