The National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) has appointed Mr. Vinay Kumar Singh as its new Managing Director. Singh, a 1987 batch officer of the Indian Railway Service of Engineers (IRSE), brings over three decades of experience in railway infrastructure and urban transport projects. His extensive career includes significant contributions to various railway projects and metro rail systems in India.

The NCRTC Board expressed confidence in Singh's ability to lead the organization and deliver on the RRTS projects, which are expected to transform regional connectivity and contribute significantly to the socio-economic development of the NCR.

With Singh at the helm, the NCRTC aims to accelerate project timelines, optimize resources, and foster a culture of excellence and innovation. His appointment is seen as a strategic move to enhance the corporation's capability in managing complex infrastructure projects and achieving its mission of providing fast, reliable, and sustainable transit solutions.
