New Delhi [India], November 20 (ANI): Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) on Wednesday, to enable the sale of ASI monument tickets through DMRC’s ‘Momentum 2.0 Delhi Sarthi’ mobile application.
According to the official release, the initiative aimed at providing a single platform for the purchase of both ASI monument tickets and DMRC travel tickets.
The MoU was signed in the presence of Dr. Vikas Kumar, Managing Director, DMRC and Anand Madhukar, Additional Director General (Admin), ASI.

As part of the collaboration, DMRC and ASI will jointly develop and implement an integrated QR-based ticketing system to facilitate seamless access to Delhi Metro services and selected centrally protected monuments managed by ASI.
Both organisations will work together to promote Delhi’s rich cultural heritage through coordinated efforts, including public campaigns, joint events, and digital platforms. This initiative is expected to provide a hassle-free, world-class travel and tourism experience for both national and international tourists across Delhi and the National Capital Region (NCR).
