The Noida Metro Rail Corporation (NMRC) has released a tender for the engagement of specialised Radio FM services at its Aqua Line, as reported by the Metro Rail News.
Aqua Line is soon to be started between Noida and Greater Noida. The NMRC officials said that they would soon open bids submitted by the tenderer.
The idea is to make sure the people are entertained with music and updated about the latest happening while they wait for the trains. “ Interviews of any celebrity or VIP who have travelled on the line could also be featured,” said PD Upadhyay, GM-Finance (acting CPRO), NMRC.
Two interested parties sought clarifications in the pre-bid meeting. Officials are expecting more candidates by the end of the application date. The tender is to be opened on 11 November, and the concerned candidates will be asked to make presentations.
A similar radio service is already seen in Lucknow Metro which partnered with Radio City 91.9 FM.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
