Singh said, “The UPSRTC has entered into a MoU with IOUX, marking a substantial stride towards effective electronic contract execution, monitoring, and management in our digitisation efforts.” He highlighted the current reliance on physical paperwork for contract execution, describing it as a time-consuming and costly process.

The implementation of digital contracts, according to the minister, is expected to not only streamline processes but also ensure consistency while reducing time and financial expenditures.
