KEY STORY
-
In case your licence renewal date is due or you need a duplicate licence, you don’t need to visit your regional RTO office anymore.
-
Other services such as temporary registration of vehicles will also be accessible online as the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) notified Aadhar-based authentication for as many as 18 services which will now be made available online via Aadhar authentication.
-
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 move is especially beneficial as it will also lead to thinning of crowds at RTOs for these services.
“In order to provide convenient and hassle-free services to the citizen, the Ministry shall make all the required arrangements for wide publicity through media and individual notices to make citizens aware of the requirements of Aadhaar for availing contactless services through implementing agencies,” stated MoRTH notification.
