Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (APSRTC) Vice Chairman and managing director, Dwaraka Tirumala Rao issues orders for the purchase of High-Speed Diesel (HSD) for Road Transport Corporation (RTC) buses as well as hired buses from the private retail fuel filling stations.

In recent times there has been a sharp rise in the cost of HSD has been noted in the past few days.
