The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation and a PSU BEL signed an agreement on Monday for development of an indigenous communication-based train control system.
The DMRC is developing this indigenous system with Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) and C-DAC as part of the 'Make in India' initiative of the Government of India under the aegis of the Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs.
The system is being widely adopted by most of the countries around the globe specially for its feature of moving block which allows high frequency of trains.
The DMRC and BEL have also jointly developed the i-ATS (indigenous Automatic Train Supervision System) which is currently under implementation stage.
