  • India’s first-ever Indigenous Automatic Train Supervision System (i-ATS) has been developed by a joint team of DMRC and Bharat Electronics Limited, under the government of India’s ‘Make in India’ and ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’ initiatives for metro rail transit systems.  
  • The i-ATS system was formally launched on the Red Line from the Operations Control Centre in Shastri Park by Manoj Joshi, the Secretary of Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs.  
  • With this milestone, India is the 6th country now joining the elite list of a few countries in the world with their own ATS products.
  • ATS is a computer-based system, which manages train operations. This system is indispensable for high-train density operations such as the Metro, where services are scheduled every few minutes.
