Bengaluru: A departmental inquiry has been initiated against a driver of the state-owned transport corporation for offering Namaz after parking the bus with passengers inside, a senior official said on Wednesday.
A video of the driver, identified as A K Mulla, performing Namaz during duty hours has gone viral.
