Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) is well known for its urge to adopt sophisticated methods toward the betterment of its commuters. In a recent step, it yet again lived up to its reputation with the announcement of a tender regarding the development of an advanced Delhi Metro App.
Some of the probable features that it expects in the prospective app include:- Offline functioning without the use of GPRS or Internet
