What is the night time public transportation scene here?
IIT student here. Until when do smart city/e-buses operate in the night, especially on key routes such as the Phoolbagh-Rawatpur-Kanpur Central one? Info on the website (https://e-bus.kanpursmartcity.org/) is very poor. It would be a useful option when autos would be inconvenient in the night.
P.S. Info about frequency and punctuality would also be welcome.
