The Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation (MSRTC) is making travel easier, more transparent, and fully digital for different social groups.

In this direction, the “RuPay On-the-Go” NCMC (National Common Mobility Card)-enabled smart card scheme was officially launched today by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis at the state secretariat. Deputy Chief Ministers Eknath Shinde and Sunetra Ajit Pawar, Transport Minister and MSRTC Chairman Pratap Sarnaik, along with other ministers and officers of the corporation, were also present at the event.

During the launch, Chief Minister Fadnavis, along with Deputy Chief Ministers Shinde and Pawar, distributed NCMC smart cards to senior citizen Ramesh Dhavre, concessional female passengers Sangeeta Palkar and Varsha Kamble as part of the Amrit Mahotsav celebrations.

Under this initiative, NCMC smart cards linked to Aadhaar numbers will be issued to students, senior citizens, persons with disabilities, women, and other concessional travelers. The cards will allow passengers to avail travel concessions more conveniently on MSRTC buses, while also making travel management more digital, efficient, and transparent.
