The user raised a query regarding a Metro ticket on Twitter and tagged Vijay Shekhar Sharma. The tweet read, "When we buy a Metro QR ticket on Paytm, it should allow us to save the ticket to our photos. It's a pain to locate it on the app when we reopen it. (And it doesn't allow screenshots for security reasons). I thought I was the only one, but seems it's common." {sic}
To which Vijay Shekhar Sharma said, "Agree. Would change."
Agree. Would change.

You can also download the ticket using the "Download Ticket" option.
However, the app does not allow you to take a screenshot of the booking but you can download the ticket.
Reasons why screenshot of ticket is not allowed
There are a few reasons why you might not be able to screenshot tickets on your phone.
Security: Some apps disable screenshot capturing on specific screens, such as login or payment screens, to protect sensitive information. This is especially common for apps that sell tickets, as screenshots of tickets can be easily shared and resold.
Fraud prevention: Another reason why you might not be able to screenshot tickets is to prevent fraud. If someone screenshots a ticket and then tries to use it to enter an event, the ticket checker would be able to tell that the ticket is a screenshot and not the original. This helps to prevent people from reselling tickets that they don't actually own.
