Commuter Welfare Society



This Chennai based society is founded on the thought that commuters ought to take greater interest into the transport facilities that they use daily, instead of waiting for the government to resolve their commuting problems.

The society's activities are as follows:

•     With the help of 17 women's self help groups, maintaining roads and spread awareness about roadmaintenance
•          Adding three additional bus services to the Manali bus terminus
•          Efforts to change the double-fare timing from 9 PM, to 10.30 PM and beyond
•          Success in receiving a bus route from the Chennai CMBT main bus terminus to Manali

           Apart from such commuter-specific activities, the society is also involved in:

•          Running awareness campaigns about eye and blood donation
•          Helping improve the general knowledge of high school students through quizzes
•          Visiting orphanages and shelters for the homeless and offering whatever help is required
•          Maintaining the Manali cemetery

Functioning under the leadership of Mr. Sridhar, a diploma holder in polytechnic studies, Manali Commuter Welfare Society is inspiring various urban groups to become more self-reliant in solving their daily commuting and other challenges.
