Bhopal City Link Limited (BCLL) looks after the transportation of the passengers in the city and provides them with safe and comfortable journey. In the tough times of COVID-19 pandemic BCLL assisted students who have their centres for National Defence Academy (NDA and NA-I) examinations in the city here on Sunday. BCLL is working in a joint effort with Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) who is conducting this exam. The students from all over the countrytook part in the examination.
 
UPSC held the examination in as many as 43centres in the city.BCLL assisted these students by picking them from four centres in the city which are namely Bhopal railway station platform number 6, Habibganj Railway Station platform number 1, Halalpur Bus Stand and ISBT Bus Stand. Due to the Corona Curfew imposed in the city there is no transportation facility available. To facilitate the students and ease their way to respective examination centres the administration provided them transportation between 6 am to 6 pm. As many as 100 buses dropped the students to their centres. BMC along with BCLL requested the students to follow the COVID SOP’s by putting on their face mask and maintain physical distancing as instructed by the officials.
 
This will not only help them in dealing with the deadly virus but will keep other students and the assisting staff safe. Officials on duty told, that few students were found willing to get dropped to their centres after 9 am as well. Buses were assigned by the administration and the students were dropped to their respective centres which were 18 in numbers. The number of students to be dropped to their centres were 15 in every bus.
