New Delhi: Delhi Transport Corporation on Monday signed an MoU with Airawat Research Foundation (ARF) of IIT Kanpur to strengthen the operation, maintenance and enhancement of Delhi Transport Stack and One Delhi App.

The collaboration will support key digital platforms, including One Delhi App and ONDC-based bus ticketing services, through the use of advanced technologies, AI and data analytics. Transport minister Pankaj Kumar Singh said the partnership would help institutionalise transport technology management and improve service reliability, connectivity and commuter experience across Delhi.

Calling it one of the fastest large-scale digital mobility rollouts in the country, Singh said the initiative has enabled women commuters to access free travel in DTC buses through a modern, digital platform.
