Bus Day
Introduced on 4 February 2010. It is an event calling all the citizens of Bengaluru to use public transport. The idea behind Bus Day is to observe the changes which can be brought in the city in trying to respect Environment, Traffic Situation, Health of individuals Perception. The Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) campaigned for this day long event with support from the traffic police, Information Technology companies and their employees, and members of Praja.in (a web portal for civic activism). Since then the 4th of every month is observed as a "Bus Day".

Who got on a bus bound for Ealing.

So he carefully spat on the ceiling.”
