LAHORE: The Pakistan Tourism Development Corporation (PTDC) on Sunday suspended the Dosti Bus Service that runs between Lahore and Delhi after caste violence in the Indian state of Haryana crippled life since Friday.
At least ten people have died in caste protests which triggered widespread arson and looting in the north Indian state, police said Sunday, as New Delhi faced a water crisis after mobs shut down a key supply. Thousands of troops with shoot-on-sight orders were deployed in Haryana state, a day after week-long protests turned violent. The manager of the Dosti Bus Service told media that 20 passengers had booked seats to travel to Delhi for Monday. All of them have been notified of the postponement, he said. A date for the resumption of the service has not been announced yet.
