Justice Prevails: Man Wins Case Against KSRTC After Being Expelled for Homemade Oil

Deivasigamani found himself in a distressing situation when he and his family were ousted from a KSRTC bus during a journey from Villupuram to Bengaluru due to carrying a 15-litre can of homemade organic cooking oil. Despite the humiliating ordeal, he persevered, seeking legal redress for the injustice he suffered. Ten months later, justice was served as a consumer court penalized KSRTC and the bus conductor with a fine of Rs 1 lakh for service deficiency.
