摘要：In this research paper described the impact of women free bus operation in Tamil Nadu State transport corporation (TNSTC) in Tamil Nadu. After the government’s announcement of free bus travel for all women, most of the women passengers are likely to shift from private to government buses. Women who are travelling through other modes of transport may also prefer to travel by government buses. As per the ITDP survey, 77% of women transit by walk, cycle and public transport. Either they lost a job as they couldn’t afford to travel long-distance anymore due to bus fare hike. Many chose to work nearby their home for lower wages, hence, it results in lower household income, income disparity, labour shortage, gender discrimination, domestic violence, a lower standard of living, lower accessibility and availability. In one word-socio and economic loss of the household and to the state in general. Result in free bus operation give multiple benefits across the state both in terms of standard of livelihood and affordability, as well as raise in per capita income per women.The main intention behind this scheme is to increase the work participation rate of women and promote public transportation.
