Students holding an Apaar ID card will benefit from reduced air ticket prices, making travel more affordable. This card serves as a digital repository for all academic records.


Significance of the Apaar ID for Students

For students with an Apaar ID, this announcement is crucial. The card simplifies travel, offering substantial discounts on air tickets that previously posed a financial burden for families.
