The school bus operators had complained about running out of funds to keep the buses on the road

All it took for the school bus operators to keep the wheels rolling was a day of hard posturing. As soon as it was reported that they may have to temporarily halt services due to the ongoing #cashcrush, they were granted permission to withdraw Rs 50,000 per week as opposed to the permitted Rs 24,000. Additionally, petrol pumps were also directed to accept cheques and old currency from the bus operators till November 24. To that end, the School Bus Operators Association (SBOA) announced that the buses would continue to ply.
