Newsmantra — Wed, 10 Jun 2026 12:03:51 +0000

NEW DELHI. The Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut Namo Bharat train service achieved a major milestone by recording its highest-ever daily ridership of approximately 1,25,500 commuters. This surge reflects a broader trend, with the corridor now averaging around 1 lakh passengers every day. The rapid growth highlights a significant shift in regional travel patterns, as commuters increasingly choose Namo Bharat over other options for its speed, punctuality, and overall reliability.

To effectively manage this growing passenger demand, the National Capital Region Transport Corporation recently introduced 18 additional train trips during peak hours. This enhancement particularly benefits officegoers, students, and regular commuters who rely on time-bound public transport. By substantially reducing travel times across the National Capital Region, the service has firmly established itself as a preferred choice for daily transit.

The National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) has introduced the Solar-on-Track system at the Namo Bharat Depot in Duhai, Ghaziabad—an innovation that converts an unused 70-metre track section into an energy-generating asset. Equipped with 28 high-efficiency solar panels, the system will produce around 17,500 units of power annually and contribute to essential station functions such as lighting and signalling, all without requiring additional land.

This initiative is part of NCRTC’s larger solar strategy to meet 70% of its energy needs from renewable sources. The corporation already operates 5.5 MW of rooftop solar installations and is progressing toward a 15 MW peak generation target. With Duhai becoming the second Indian location to adopt this system after Varanasi, officials believe the Solar-on-Track model could be replicated across metro and rapid rail networks nationwide. Trial runs of the installation have been completed, and final approval is awaited from authorities.

NCRTC Advances Eco-Initiatives with 900 Rainwater Harvesting Pits

Newsmantra — Wed, 23 Jul 2025 10:46:21 +0000

NEW DELHI : In a major step toward environmental sustainability, NCRTC is implementing a comprehensive rainwater harvesting initiative along the entire Namo Bharat corridor — stretching from Sarai Kale Khan (Delhi) to Modipuram (Meerut). A total of 900 rainwater harvesting pits are being strategically constructed as part of this initiative.

We are proud to share that 800 of these pits have already been constructed and are fully operational, contributing significantly to groundwater recharge and efficient storm water management in the region.

The construction of the remaining 100 pits is progressing swiftly and is expected to be completed soon. Once fully operational, the network of harvesting pits will enhance the corridor’s environmental footprint by helping conserve water, prevent runoff, and mitigate urban flooding risks.

This initiative reflects NCRTC’s strong commitment to integrating sustainable practices within infrastructure development, in line with national goals for climate resilience and responsible urbanization.

We extend our appreciation to all teams involved in this vital project. Your dedication to embedding sustainability into every facet of the Namo Bharat corridor is creating lasting impact for generations to come.

Let’s continue to lead by example — building infrastructure that not only moves people but also protects our planet.
