New Delhi:The passengers of Namo Bharat Train will experience a seamless travel solution over the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut RRTS Corridor as ticket users can scan their RRTS QR codes at the entry gates of the station using an Electronic Reservation Slip (ERS) or the mobile app to effortlessly enter and travel according to booked journey details, National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) officials told ETV Bharat on Tuesday.
Highlighting the benefits of this initiative, Puneet Vats, Chief Public Relations Officer (CPRO), NCRTC, said, “This initiative will provide a seamless travel solution, making it easier for passengers to book and travel using both the Indian Railways and the RRTS services.”
Namo Bharat train tickets will be booked through the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation Limited (IRCTC) platform. After booking a train ticket, if a nearby RRTS station exists, a popup will prompt the user to book an RRTS ticket. If the user doesn’t book initially, they can revisit the booking history and opt to "Book RRTS Ticket" later. Even without purchasing rail tickets, users can book Namo Bharat train tickets for their daily usage from the IRCTC platform, which will be valid for same-day travel, Vats said.
After booking an IRCTC train e-ticket, users can now opt to book Namo Bharat train tickets for up to eight travellers per booking as an add-on service. This booking option will be displayed on the PNR confirmation page and will also be accessible from the user’s train ticket booking history.
