The Vasai Virar City Municipal Corporation said on Friday that its buses will offer a 50 per cent fare concession to women from June 1.

VVMC includes areas like Vasai, Virar and Nalasopara in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region.

"Some other civic transport services have already been offering concessions in ticket fares to women. In line with the state government's policy of a 50 per cent concession to women on buses, we have decided to offer tickets at half the rates to women from June 1," said VVMC Commissioner Anil Kumar Pawar.
