According to the government, it is expected that many people will forgo travelling in cars and switch to the comfortable buses under the scheme which will help strengthen public transport in the national capital.
"Government has sought people's suggestions and opinion on the implementation of app-based premium bus service scheme till June 20. They can send the same at deltrpt@gmail.Com.
"Public suggestions and opinion will be sent to the Lt Governor and government will apprise him about what people think about the scheme," said a senior government official.
The scheme was initially scheduled to be rolled out from June 1.
Delhi government had on May 20 notified about the scheme that will allow people to book their preferred seat in a bus through their smart phones on the lines of app-based taxi services.
However, the LG later sought the file pertaining to scheme and refused to give his go-ahead for the its implementation.
Only air-conditioned buses would ply under the scheme according to which one bus aggregator will have to run at lease 50 vehicles to get a licence from the Delhi government's Transport department.
Delhi government's Anti-Corruption Branch chief M K Meena Meena had recently ordered an inquiry into the scheme on the basis of a complaint filed by BJP MLA Vijender Gupta who alleged that the Kejriwal government wanted to launch the scheme to benefit a Gurgaon-based private bus aggregator.
