KSRTC patent row

On the KSRTC patent row between Karnataka and Kerala, Reddy said the corporation is ready to face the legal battle which is being threatened by the Kerala government.

“A lot of people were booking on the Kerala State Road Transport Corporation, presuming that it was Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation. This was creating a lot of confusion and the Corporation was facing losses. To eradicate this confusion, we decided to patent the name, and also dispatched the same to the Kerala government. However, the Kerala government is unhappy with this and is threatening legal action. We are ready to face it,” said Reddy.
