The Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) has announced the introduction of NFT tickets on select Tejas trains for passengers travelling between Delhi and Lucknow during the festival of Holi. This move is another example of the growing momentum behind NFT tickets in altering the landscape of traditional ticketing systems.

A Digital Commemoration

From March 20 to April 2, travellers booking tickets on Tejas trains numbered 82501 and 82502 can obtain NFT tickets. These digital tickets feature artistic representations of iconic landmarks from Delhi and Lucknow, showcasing the country’s rich cultural heritage. This initiative not only celebrates the vibrant festival of Holi but also integrates traditional elements with modern technology on IRCTC’s digital platforms.

Holi, also known as the festival of colours, marks the end of winter and heralds the start of spring, a time of rejuvenation. This festival is traditionally celebrated on the full moon of the Phalguna month in the Hindu lunisolar calendar. In 2024, the date is March 25.

A Step Towards Digital Innovation

The introduction of NFT tickets by IRCTC could mark a step towards incorporating blockchain technology into the Indian railway system. While the railway has yet to determine if these NFT tickets will carry an additional cost, this move demonstrates its openness to digital transformation.

In the spirit of Holi, IRCTC unveils a vibrant tapestry of NFT tickets for the Lucknow-New Delhi-Lucknow IRCTC Tejas trains (82501/82502), available from March 20th to April 2nd.

Beyond this festive initiative, Indian Railways has also undertaken several other blockchain-related projects. These include hosting educational workshops, collaborating with Polygon, and introducing NFT tickets for journeys to religious sites. This highlights a larger vision of modernizing the travel experience through advanced technology.

As NFTs become increasingly popular, with more people investing and showing interest, the ticketing industry is set to see new and exciting changes. Event organizers are starting to embrace NFT tickets, suggesting that soon, event-goers may favour the ease and safety of using NFT Tickets instead of the old-school paper or plastic ones.

Since IRCTC handles hundreds of thousands of ticket bookings each day, incorporating NFT tickets offers a chance for this innovative ticketing approach to become a regular option for the public.
