Kerala State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) is Kerala's main public transportation provider and has a monopoly over nationalized routes. KSRTC operates over 6,300 buses and transports around 3.1 million passengers daily, but has been facing a severe financial crisis due to issues like operational inefficiency, an aging fleet, competition, and rising fuel costs. Proposed solutions include improving efficiency, introducing new technologies, seeking government support to pay off debts, and boosting revenue.
