Rail-based transit systems in India are operated by public entities, with some work being given to private contractors. The National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) signed an agreement with DB India to operate and maintain the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) corridor for 12 years. This is a step in the right direction to encouraging the participation of the private sector in regional rail and metro rail projects.
