Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the ‘one nation, one card’ for transportation that is ‘National Common Mobility Card’ (NCMC) which developed India’s first Indigenous payment Eco-system for transportation in March. It enables people to pay different kinds of transport charges, including metro services and toll tax, across the country.
Ranjan further said that the Centre has also announced NCMC. We have decided that we will go ahead with our own card and as and when some national card is launched, we will integrate ours with it.
