The Himachal Road Transport Corporation is set to provide free travelling facilities to women in government buses on the occasion of Raksha Bandhan and Bhaiya Dooj, an official statement on Saturday said.

Rakshabandhan falls on August 30 while Bhaiya Dooj will be celebrated on November 15, 2023.

Raksha Bandhan and Bhaiya Dooj, both are festivals to honour the bond between a brother and his sister. The festivals are a testament to the long-lasting bond between the two.

Keeping in view the significance of the festival, the HRTC took the decision to provide free bus rides to women.
