HI FRIENDS,
The ministry of Road and Transport Highways (MORTH) on 4th March 2021 issue a notification which said that people will not be need to visit the RTO office for as many as 18 services.
The development comes after the Union government issued a draft notification for linking driving licence and RC with the 12-digit unique identity number assigned to every Indian citizen.
The Aadhaar-authentication based contactless service will provide convenient and hassle-free services to the citizens.
MORTH Said :
“Certain services regarding Driving License and Certificate of Registration have been made completely online.
Now these services can be availed without going to RTO.
With Aadhaar authentication, on voluntary basis, anyone can get the benefit of these contactless services,”
“This will reduce the compliance burden on citizens, helping them to avail these services in a hassle free, contact less manner.
This will also reduce the footfall in the RTO office, which will further increase efficiency of the RTO offices as well,”.
The following services can now be availed :
- Learner’s licence
- Renewal of driving licence for which test of competence to drive is not require
