President Droupadi Murmu will launch the free Pink Mobility Card on Monday, March 2. The Delhi government has designed this card to provide women with free bus travel in the national capital and to enable seamless access to multiple public transport systems through a single smart card.
What is pink smart card?
Delhi’s pink smart card is a digital, smart, QR-based card for women and transgender citizens of Delhi. This card will have the name of the applicant, photo, QR code, Card ID and basic details.
This card will help women to travel free of cost on Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) buses. The card can also be used for paid travel on Metro, Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) and other public transport services.
Around 50 centres, including the offices of district magistrates and sub-divisional magistrates, and selected DTC locations, will be set up for card issuance. Each pink card will be linked to the beneficiary’s mobile number and Aadhaar to verify age, gender and Delhi residency.
Eligibility Criteria
Candidates who want to apply for the smart card should be a resident of Delhi, be a woman or transgender, be above 12 years of age, and have a valid ID card and valid address proof.
