Now very good news is going to come for the passengers traveling by both railway and metro in India. After the introduction of the wonderful facility of One India One Ticket, now tickets for both train and metro can be booked together many months in advance and travel can be made very easy. IRCTC and Delhi Metro Rail Corporation have started this facility for the passengers. Let's know about it..
Indian Railways and Delhi Metro Rail Corporation keep bringing new facilities for the convenience of passengers. Now in this sequence, IRCTC and DMRC have jointly launched One India One Ticket. Let us tell you that this facility has been started to provide comfortable travel to the passengers from the main line of railway and the metro connected to it in Delhi-NCR region.
Under One India One Ticket, just like passengers book train tickets from IRCTC, now they will be able to book Delhi Metro tickets from IRCTC website or mobile app and reach home from the railway station at the same time. And the special thing is that this token with Delhi Metro QR code will also be visible on the passenger's online train ticket as soon as it is booked, so that travel in Delhi Metro can be done with the QR code of the metro train recorded on it. In this way, after getting off the train, the passenger will not have to stand in a separate line to get a ticket in the metro. Rather, the same booked ticket will make the journey easy.
Tickets can be booked 4 months in advance
According to the information provided by Delhi Metro Rail Corporation, these QR code based tickets of metro can be booked from IRCTC website up to 120 days in advance i.e. about 4 months in advance and will be valid for the next 4 days. So that even if the train is getting delayed, these tickets do not go waste and passengers can take advantage of it.
will be printed on the electronic slip
This token with the QR code of Delhi Metro will also be printed on the passenger's IRCTC electronic reservation slip. It will be based on one QR code for one passenger. Let us tell you that this is being done for the first time by the Railway Information System Center, IRCTC and Metro. This will benefit the passengers a lot. Its beta version has been launched. During this, IRCTC CMD Sanjay Kumar Jain, DMRC MD Vikas Kumar said that after the success of the beta version, its regular version will also be launched soon.
this is the rule so far
Till now, single journey ticket in Delhi Metro could be booked only on the day of travel, which was valid for the same day. But now after this facility, if it is booked along with the railway ticket, then you will also get the facility of a valid ticket for 120 days. Not only this, the facility of ticket cancellation will also be flexible.
