Long route buses stop here for a while and passengers may find it difficult to alight the bus to quench their thirst and more so in the case of aged persons and women who travel with their kids.Cool drinking water comes in search of thirsty passengers at this juncture. Volunteers of Sri Satya Sai Sevadal approach the buses as they come to a halt and ask passengers whether they need water to drink.Few passengers hesitate that it might cost their money purse. But, the volunteers assure them that it is served free and as a service. Passengers happily put their hands for a cup of cool water and gratefully return the tumblers after quenching their thirst. Sri Satya Sai Service Organisations and Sri Satya Sai Sevadal undertake this service every summer at the bus stand.Sai devotees supply the ice needed from their houses to chill the drinking water. And this is not just limited to only the commuting passengers. Anyone wanting to beat the heat of the summer will be approached by these volunteers.State coordinator of the organization K B D Beeraiah inaugurating the service called upon volunteers to be courteous in serving the people.B Chilurappa, Shantappa, Malavia were present.
