Bare Act
The Rajasthan State Road Transport Service (Prevention of Ticketless Travel) (Amendment), Act, 1987
This legislation regulates passenger transport on buses operated by the Rajasthan State Road Transport Corporation to prevent ticketless travel and fraudulent practices. It applies to passengers traveling on state road transport vehicles as well as conductors and corporation employees managing fare collection. The law makes traveling without a valid ticket or pass, using invalid or expired tickets, and obstructing bus staff punishable offences subject to fines, imprisonment, and removal from vehicles. It also penalizes conductors who negligently or intentionally fail to issue tickets or collect fares. This law matters because it safeguards public revenue, deters transit fraud, and ensures orderly public bus operations across Rajasthan.
