PMPML Bans Reels on Buses After Atharva Sudame Controversy; Legal Action Looms

• PMPML bans photos, videos, and reels inside its buses following a controversial reel by influencer Atharva Sudame.
• Filming without prior permission will now lead to direct legal cases against offenders.
• PMPML employees (drivers, conductors) assisting reel stars or making videos on duty will face strict administrative action.
• Atharva Sudame's reel used PMPML uniform, e-ticketing machine, and depicted passengers objectionably, leading to a legal notice.
• The new rule, issued by PMP Chairman Pankaj Deore, aims to protect the corporation's image and applies to all PMPML buses.

Why It Matters: PMPML enforces strict ban on bus reels, warns of legal action and employee disciplinary measures.
