BRTS on 'tender' ground after oil price hike

Rising oil prices have raised several technical concerns for the tendering process of BRTS buses. The increase in CNG and diesel prices would mean a direct impact on Ahmedabad Janmarg Limited (AJL)'s revenue, the governing body of BRTS in the city. The tendering process has been postponed by a week. The operators have already sounded their concerns to the AJL board about a possible increase in operations cost. This cost is to be paid by the AJL to the BRTS operators per kilometre.
