Register for new number plate for your vehicle by Oct 13 or else go to jail

Time to register for new number plates for your vehicles or else you might land up in jail!

Starting in October, the transport department sets to check and ensure that all vehicles run with high security registration plates.

This move comes after the department recorded around 4 million vehicles, including four-wheelers and two-wheelers failing to have sophisticated and tamper-proof plates. “According to our estimates, there are close to 4 million vehicles, including both four-wheelers and two-wheelers, that do not have high-security registration plates," said a transport dept official as reported by TOI.

Earlier, in 2012, the Supreme Court had asked all states and Union territories to ensure that high-security plates were registered by all vehicles by June 15 of that year.
