Paratransit is the intermediate public transport mode which offers services having a flexible schedule and flexible route. These are important modes in the small and medium-size cities in developing countries like India. Silchar City is the second largest city in terms of municipal area and population of Assam State, India. In this study, the role of paratransit is assessed in terms of percentage share of paratransit vehicles and percentage share in terms of passengers carried by them. The socio-economic characteristics of paratransit operators had been assessed through a questionnaire survey. It has been established through the study that paratransit modes are the sole urban public passenger carrier and most popular mode in the city. The conclusions from the assessment of socio-economic characteristics of the paratransit operators are important for the planning of social welfare schemes.
