In this episode of zero down, Fabiha and Khushi take on a question that troubles a lot of economists, development thinkers and public policymakers: whether public transport should be free of cost for the masses. They talk about the feasibility of a full cost recovery rate in public transit, arguments in favour of free public transport systems, exploring fare resistance movements as well as the contributions of policy makers who argue against free transport. Grab your earphones and delve into this everlasting policy debate.
