RedBus Continues To Dominate In India, But That’s Not What Makes Them Special (opens in new tab)

I am really saddened by tech writers making false statements about India. There are many wrong facts in the article, I wrote a response to the article about what's wrong with it. Here it is http://www.geekybuddha.org/blog/2013/02/22/re-redbus-continu...

Although RedBus service is really good. Most of the facts mentioned here are WRONG!

Starting with the image which I believe is of 'BMTC' which is a bus red in color. So hence RedBus?

TechCrunch really needs a regional author, or at least take inputs from others, or at least should do better research before writing fiction on a tech blog.

The article is riddled with errors.

> They’re cheap compared to trains and flights

Trains are mostly way cheaper than buses. But there are not enough trains and that's why people turn to buses.

And then there is the picture of a red bus on top. LOL. That bus has nothing to do with RedBus and you cannot buy a ticket to travel in that bus from RedBus, not now, not ever.
