Kannur Corporation introduces double-decker bus for sightseeing during Dasara

The Kannur Corporation has introduced a KSRTC double-decker bus for the first time, adding a new attraction to the Dasara celebrations.

Organised through the Kannur Corporation and KSRTC’s Budget Tourism Cell, the service will operate for 10 days, allowing residents and tourists to enjoy colourful illuminations and festival decorations in the city. Its continuation will depend on public response.

Mayor P. Indira expressed hope that the service would enhance the Kannur Dasara’s appeal and eventually lead to a permanent double-decker sightseeing service.

Corporation standing committee chairman Rijil Makkutty highlighted the tourism development opportunities around destinations such as Payyambalam and Muzappilangad and said that the double-decker bus service and the planned drone show on the last day of the Dasara celebrations would make the ceremony more distinctive.
