"If the central government allows, Delhi is confident of running public transport," he said.
Gahlot said that social distancing, contactless ticketing and disinfection will be the three pillars of the strategy to run public transport safely.
"And all of this will be possible only if people of Delhi cooperate. Delhi will be back on its feet only if people and the government work together," he added.
