Pics : Meghalaya Transport Corp deluxe coach

9:09:00 AM Biswajit SVM Chaser 0 Comments

I had been to Meghalaya Transport Corporation (MTC) head office, located at Shillong, Meghalaya on 25th January 2018 for a Motor India Assignment. Meghalaya is a beautiful picturesque state with an unique geography of plain and hilly terrains. The road conditions in Meghalaya have improved during the recent years. The four laned revamped NH6 highway, connecting Guwahati and Shillong have been a boon to the region with improvement of public transport connectivity and boost in trade and commerce. 

I am hereby sharing some pics of the Unitech built Meghalaya Transport Corporation deluxe coaches at MTC bus stand, Shillong.
