Jalandhar, September 2 2021
Taking strict action against the vehicle plying without high security registration plates (HSRP), Secretary RTA Harpreet Singh Atwal on Thursday launched a special drive to issue challan against such violators. Mr. Atwal carried out checking in various points in the city wherein he issued on spot challans to as many as 25 vehicles plying without HSRPs.
Divulging the details, the Secretary RTA said that as per state government’s mandate all vehicles must have high security registration plates on them and violation of these directions would attract penalty under the Motor Vehicle Act. He added that the drive would continue in the coming days so that the government’s orders are implemented in letter and spirit.
In another development, the action against vehicles who have not surrendered their vintage numbers yet was also launched in the city as the Secretary RTA checked several such vehicles. He mentioned that in order to shun VIP culture and enhance security in the state, the government has banned all vintage numbers, hence all vehicle owners need to surrender vintage numbers with the immediate effects. He categorically mentioned that RCs of such vehicles were being cancelled in the district and vehicle owners would not be able to obtain insurance and other facilities.
