 RAPIDX Tickets – Looking forward to UPI Tap n Pay

Exciting news on the horizon: Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to inaugurate RAPIDX, India's groundbreaking regional rapid rail service, later this month. As per two well-informed officials, a 17-kilometer-long priority section of this service is expected to open its doors to the public in the very near future, possibly during the second half of October.

 

This particular segment boasts five stations—Sahibabad, Ghaziabad, Guldhar, Duhai, and Duhai Depot. All construction work at these stations was wrapped up by June this year, signaling their readiness for operation.

 


RAPIDX, a game-changer in the realm of transportation, distinguishes itself from traditional metro and railway systems. It caters to passengers seeking to travel longer distances with fewer stops and at higher speeds. With a design speed of 180 km/hr and an operational speed of 160 km/hr, it offers an average speed of 100 km/hr, ensuring rapid and efficient regional transit. Incredibly, it will take only 60 minutes to cover 100 kilometers.

 

UPI Tap n Pay is poised to revolutionize the way consumers make payments with its innovative approach.

 

Under the Phase 1 development, several key corridors are being established:

 

Delhi – Ghaziabad – Meerut Corridor

Delhi – Gurugram – SNB – Alwar Corridor

Delhi – Panipat Corridor

The RRTS network, once fully operational, promises world-class commuter transit services characterized by safety and reduced travel times, thanks to its high-speed (160 km) and high-frequency (5 to 10 minutes) operations. For non-stop journeys, this technology allows travelers to cover distances of 100 kilometers in under 45 to 50 minutes. Additionally, the project ensures seamless connectivity with Indian Railways, Inter State Bus Terminals (ISBTs), airports, and the Delhi Metro, making it convenient for all categories of travelers.

 

The estimated 82-kilometer Delhi-Meerut Corridor is a vital link connecting Delhi to Uttar Pradesh. It will not only benefit the region but also facilitate the connection of numerous townships and economic centers already planned along this corridor.

 

To add to the excitement, an Rs. 227 crore contract was awarded on December 24, 2021, to Datamatics Global Services – AEP Ticketing Solutions (DM-AEP-26A JV) for the EMV-based open-loop Automated Fare Collection (AFC) system for the Delhi – Meerut RRTS Line (Package 26A). This innovative line will offer QR code ticketing (digital and paper QR codes) and EMV open-loop contactless card ticketing in line with NCMC (National Common Mobility Card) standards. Travelers can conveniently purchase QR code tickets from vending machines, ticket booths, or digitally via the NCRTC's mobile app or website. Business Class passengers will also enjoy the privilege of access to the executive lounge and boarding the Alstom trains.

 

The Hybrid Annuity Model (HAM), a pioneering approach for AFCs in India, introduced tenders for this package in May 2021. The future of regional rapid rail travel in India is fast approaching, promising an efficient and advanced commuting experience.

UPI Tap n Pay is poised to revolutionize the way consumers make payments with its innovative approach. With this groundbreaking service, customers will enjoy the convenience of swiftly completing transactions by simply tapping Near Field Communication (NFC) enabled QR codes at merchant locations. This user-friendly method not only accelerates the payment process but also enhances the overall shopping experience, saving valuable time for busy individuals.

 

However, the most distinctive and exceptional feature of UPI Tap n Pay is its independence from the necessity of an internet connection. 


In an age where digital transactions often hinge on stable connectivity, this service breaks the mold by ensuring that payments can be made seamlessly even in areas with limited or no internet access. This remarkable feature guarantees reliability and accessibility, making PI Tap & Pay a game-changer in the world of payment solutions. 


Whether you're in a bustling city or a remote location, this service empowers you to make secure payments without the constraints of an internet connection, truly putting control back in the hands of consumers.

Is UPI Tap n Pay Set to Launch During the Upcoming Ganesh Festival?

 Is UPI Tap n Pay Set to Launch During the Upcoming Ganesh Festival?     

The Ganesh Festival is approaching, and preparations are already underway.

One of the key highlights of the Ganesh Festival is the Ganesh Pandal, where numerous installations appear throughout India/Bharat to celebrate the joy of Ganesh Habba.

Donation boxes are a common sight in these Ganesh Pandals, allowing devotees to contribute their donations to Lord Ganesh.

In 2019, a few Ganesh Pandals embraced UPI as a means to receive donations.

Now, in 2023, the question arises: Will UPI Tap n Pay make its debut during this year's festivities?        


           

Ganesh Chaturthi, also known as Vinayaka Chaturthi, is a significant Hindu festival that commemorates the birth of Lord Ganesha, the deity with an elephant head.

This 10-day-long celebration commences with the installation of a Lord Ganesh idol (referred to as Ganpati Murti) and culminates with its immersion in a water body.

The festival begins on the 4th day and concludes on the 14th day of the Hindu month of Bhadra. In 2023, Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations will kick off on the 19th of September, which falls on a Tuesday. The exact date may from State to State.

The credit for reviving this festival and transforming it from a private household observance into a grand public event goes to the freedom fighter Lokmanya Tilak in 1893.

During a time when the British colonial government prohibited social and political gatherings in India, this celebration ignited patriotic sentiments and united people of all castes and communities against the colonial rule.

When the festival is organized by local parties or clubs, they often opt for large-scale idols of Lord Ganesha and continue with music, dance, and various cultural shows or events for a duration of 11 days.

This uninterrupted celebration is filled with vibrancy, and it provides an opportunity for people to enjoy quality time with their loved ones.

Ganesh Chaturthi is celebrated on a grand scale in various states of India, including Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Goa, Karnataka, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, and Tamil Nadu.

Due to regional differences, the methods and customs of worship and celebration may vary slightly.

In Tamil Nadu, this festival is referred to as Vinayaka Chaturthi or Pillayar Chaturthi. It occurs on the fourth day following the new moon in the month of Avai as per the Tamil calendar.

In Kerala, this festival is known as Lamboodhara Piranalu and takes place during the month of Chingam.

Lastly, in Thiruvananthapuram, there is a unique tradition where a parade proceeds from the Pazhavangadi Ganapathi Temple to Shankumugham Beach.

 

This parade features towering statues of Lord Ganesha, crafted exclusively from organic materials. An interesting observation is the immersion of milk into the sea as part of the festivities

 

 

Disclaimer: These are solely my personal opinions. It's been a while since we've witnessed any innovations in donation methods during the Ganesh Festival. This presents a golden opportunity. The primary goal remains Safe ePayments, nothing more and nothing less.

 UPI Volumes going Up and UP. Cross 1,00,000 Lacs in August 2023

 

Conceived and introduced by the National Payments Corporation of India in 2016, UPI has evolved into one of the most favored payment solutions within India, boasting more than a billion transactions each month.



August Volumes upto 30th August only 


Thanks to GPT for the following poem

Amidst digital streams, UPI flows, Volumes surge, a financial prose.

100000 lacs, a grand ballet, Transactions dance, night and day.

Crossing rivers of numbers, it glides, Economy's rhythm, where commerce resides.

A tale of progress, in digital rhyme, UPi's success, a sign of our time.
