Smart card for city buses in Sambalpur

Pre-paid smart card cards will be introduced for (Indian) city bus commuters by March. Chief executive officer of paschim Odisha paribahan company Bipin Bhatia said it would provide a cashless commuting experience. The commuters can purchase the card from the office of the company that will be set up at the newly-established modern bus terminus in Ainthapali. The commuters can scan the card in a device handled by the conductor to deduct the exact fare for the journey.
