Need more busses in the route no. 222

This is with regard to the 222 no. buses operating between koti and patancheru. These buses travel via lingampally,  hafeezpet, kondapur, hitech, madhapur, jubilee hills, lakdikapul, abids and vice versa. I would like to bring to the notice of APSRTC, that the number of these buses operating in the route no. 222 are very less. Only metro express buses are plied. There are no ordinary 222 buses. Due to their less number commuters like me are facing a lot of problem. Especially in the peak hours. We are forced to wait for a long time at the bus stop and if we get the bus it will be so crowded that some people are forced travel on the footboard endeagering their lives. I request the concerned authorities to look into this matter and increase the 222 buses at least in the peak hours.

"The above paragraph has been published in Times of India news paper on the backside of the front page" dated 4th August 2011.

Every day i wait for a very long time at the bus stop. I wait for about a minimum of 30mins to a maximum of 1 hour. Sometimes even longer. Even after waiting for such a long time whats the use, i get one bus with lot of crowd in it. With no option left i try to get inside the bus, but the people standing on the footboard restrict the path. I push them hard to get in. Then i search a suitable place to stand. Most of the people stand near the entrance and a void space will be there deep inside the bus.I go to the last and stand, wait for someone to empty the seat. If i am lucky i get the seat quickly if not,  when my final stop is approacing then i get a seat.
