Road transport minister Nitin Gadkari will inaugurate the luxury bus service which will be run by Delhi Transport Corporation. DTC also runs the bus service between India and Pakistan from the same terminal.This comes after the cabinet on Monday approved the signing of bilateral agreement for regulation of passenger traffic between India and Nepal ahead of the Saarc summit in Kathmandu. The cabinet has also authorized the road transport ministry to sign similar agreements with other Saarc countries. DTC will run a luxury Volvo bus on the Delhi-Kathmandu route and the tentative one-way fare is Rs 2,300. DTC had received a proposal from PMO for starting the trans-national service.
