The Tourist Bus Association of Nepal (TBAN) signed an agreement with Electronics Concern and Research Centre Pvt Ltd with an objective to sell bus tickets online. TBAN Chair Ishwor Sharma and ECRC Chair Sanjit Poudel signed the agreement in this regard on Friday.
With the agreement, tickets of all tourist buses under the TBAN could be booked online.
