TSRTC, the state’s bus service, has exciting news for women passengers during Rakhi festivities. They’ve introduced a special event called the “TSRTC Rakhi Lucky Draw,” where women traveling on RTC buses have a chance to win valuable prizes through a lucky draw.
State-wide Lucky Draw for Women Travelers
To make Rakhi even more special, TSRTC management has decided to hold a state-wide lucky draw exclusively for women who travel on buses during the Rakhi full moon period. The prizes up for grabs total Rs. 5.50 lakh, and each region will have 33 winners. Any woman traveling on TSRTC buses can participate on the 30th and 31st of this month. After their journey, participants need to write their name and phone number on the back of their ticket and drop it into specially provided boxes at the bus stands. These boxes will then be collected and used for the draw. Each region will have its own lucky draw, with three winners chosen by officials. Prizes will be presented by Chief Guests.
