The Delhi government is set to roll out its long-promised pink cards — offering free bus travel for women — around Bhai Dooj (October 23), as chief minister Rekha Gupta’s office has directed the transport department to complete preparations ahead of the festival celebrated by women two days after Diwali, officials aware of the matter said on Friday.
Officials added that the back-end integration enabling smart card-based ticketing has been completed for all Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) buses, while similar work for cluster buses under DIMTS is nearing completion. “Our backend integration for pink and other smart cards is done. The plan is to launch the card around Bhai Dooj. Depending on the CM's directions, the rollout will happen in phases,” said a senior transport official.
