This card is a smart card specially designed for women, which functions like a regular Metro card but offers several additional benefits.

The Delhi Metro has presented a very special gift to the capital's female commuters. Keeping women's safety and convenience in mind, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has launched the "Saheli Pink Smart Card" scheme. This card has been specifically designed to provide women passengers with the benefit of affordable and safe travel. Under this scheme, women will receive special discounts and other benefits when traveling on the Metro. It is being claimed that this card will allow women in Delhi to travel on the Delhi Metro for free, although this has not been officially confirmed. The card is planned to be launched on the upcoming Bhai Dooj. Let us tell you how to obtain this card.

Designed specifically for women

This card is a smart card designed specifically for women. It functions like a regular Metro card but offers several additional benefits. Most importantly, women traveling with this card will receive up to a 10 percent discount on fares. Furthermore, the DMRC will periodically issue various offers and reward points for cardholders.

How to Apply for the Card

The Saheli Card is being made available to women at all major Delhi Metro stations. Women can apply for the "Saheli Pink Card" by visiting the ticket counter or customer care center at the metro station. They must provide their photo ID (such as an Aadhaar card or voter ID). The card will then be issued immediately. Recharges are available in the same way as regular Metro cards. Recharges can also be made online through the DMRC website or mobile app. Additionally, you'll need to apply to the bank for a KYC-compliant card, which can be used as a debit card or prepaid card.

Decision taken for women's confidence and safety

This move by the Delhi Metro is considered an important initiative towards promoting women's confidence and independence. Millions of women travel by the Delhi Metro every day. This will not only provide them with financial benefits but also a unique identity. The DMRC states that this card is an important step towards "empowering women and promoting a safe travel environment."
