National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) in collaboration with MyGov invited citizens to the Mascot Naming Contest which was held on the MyGov platform from 30th November, 2023 to 15th December, 2023.

RRTS is a new, dedicated, rail-based, high-speed, high-capacity, comfortable commuter service connecting regional nodes in NCR. The first RRTS corridor connects key nodes of Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut and its 17-km Priority Section between Sahibabad to Duhai is now operational. This complete corridor will be operational by June 2025. The future RRTS corridors will seamlessly connect many more key nodes of NCR spread across the states of Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, and Rajasthan.

NCRTC – a joint venture company of Govt of India and the States of Delhi, Haryana, Rajasthan, and U.P. under the administrative control of the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA), is mandated to implement the RRTS project across NCR, ensuring balanced and sustainable urban development through better connectivity and access. This is in line with the Hon’ble Prime Minister’s visionary GatiShakti National Master Plan.

A total of 1071 citizens nationwide, participated in this activity.

The entries received were examined, and it was decided that none of the entries were suitable to be used for the purpose. Therefore, with sincere appreciation for the efforts and creativity showcased, it has been collectively decided not to proceed further with the entries received for the said competition.

NCRTC and MyGov appreciate the efforts of all the participants and thank them for their overwhelming interest, enthusiasm, and keenness in participating in this activity. We look forward to your continued participation in upcoming activities.
