YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A double-decker bus, belonging to the Kerala State Transport Corporation (KSTRC), is now a classroom and a place for recreation for students of the Government Lower Primary School in Kerala. The two-tier classroom has been created out of one of the two low-floor buses out of hundreds meant to be scrapped by the State-run transport body.

The classroom on wheels has a TV, air-conditioner, chairs with multi-colored tables, benches, and shelves for books, but the steering wheel and the driver’s seat have been retained so that children can play as if they were driving the bus. The lively attraction for the pre-primary students who now have the opportunity to use this classroom as schools re-open on Wednesday after an over 2-year-long hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

State Transport Minister Antony Raju said building a classroom from scratch costs crores of rupees, while converting the bus into a classroom would cost less. For KSRTC, it is a negligible loss. According to a statement from the KSRTC in the Kerala High Court last month, it has around 239 low-floor rear-engine buses lying unused in its depots.
