DTC to introduce smart card on lines of Metro soon

Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) will soon introduce smart card facility on the lines of Metro Railway for travel in its buses. According to DTC officials, the tender for electronic ticketing machines (ETM), on which a passenger will only be required to swipe the monthly bus pass, will be floated in the next couple of days. The monthly bus pass is currently made on paper with DTC watermark at designated pass centres, which is very time- consuming for commuters.
