A Bus Driver Made The Whole Bus Wait Until A Lone Woman Passenger Got An Auto At 1:30AM

We are living in an era where it’s not unusual to stumble upon incidents of violence and crimes against women and children on a regular basis. However in this self-centered world, whenever something good yet unexpected happens, it restores our faith in humanity.

Something of the similar sort happened in Mumbai with a woman who got down a bus (number 398) at a deserted place at 1:30am. The driver asked her whether someone was coming to pick her and to this, she replied in negative. Since she was alone and it was late at night, the driver and conductor of the bus made up mind to wait with her at the bus stop. They made the whole bus wait until she got an auto.

The woman took to the micro-blogging site Twitter and gave a heart-touching account of the bus driver and conductor’s great gesture. She tweeted,

“This is the reason I love #Mumbai

I would like to thanks #Best Bus driver of 398 ltd. Who dropped me at 1.30 am at a deserted bus stop and asked me if someone is there to pick me up. To which I replied no. He made the entire bus wait until I got the auto. WeAreMumbai”

@MumbaiPolice We must show appreciation and gratitude for such kind hearted people.
He deserves to be appreciated in person because perhaps these tweets may never reach out to him.
He needs to know his gesture is truly praise worthy
