The Navi Mumbai Municipal Transport (NMMT) on Sunday introduced the ‘books on buses’ initiative. The buses plying on longer routes will now have a small bookshelf, wherein a commuter can browse and read books till they reach their destination.

The project has been kicked off in air-conditioned buses on the Belapur-Mantralaya, Belapur-Kalyan and Belapur-Bandra routes. If it gets a positive response, the service would be started in over 1,000 buses.
