After collecting sufficient information we designed a questionnaire which include both open ended and close ended question. The questions are simple so the respondents give feedback easily. The analysis was done with the help of excel sheet. With the help of different data interpretation techniques we have present data and result found.
66
Interpretation
70% of respondents are basically owner of the transport company they used more vehicle As the compare of farmers(10%) and drivers(20%) because they mainly used their LCV, HCV for commercial purpose for both long and short route. While the drivers used only for short route(in city) and farmers used them for their personal use so the use ofLCV and HCV is less compare to other
66
Interpretation

66
