After The Motor Vehicles (Amendment) Bill, 2019 the penalties have increased a lot and a senior Road Transport Ministry official said that you can avoid it by showing your documents on the Digilocker integrated into the mParivahan app.
An amended provision in the Central Motor Vehicles Rules 1989 allows citizens to produce transport-related documents such as registration, insurance, fitness and permit, the driving licence, pollution check certificate and any other relevant documents in electronic form.
“Motorists can produce digital documents. Digital documents do not mean scanned copy or a photo of driving license, RC (registration certificate) or insurance. They have to be stored on DigiLocker or mParivahan app,” the official said.
“This would enable the use of digital platforms for carrying and verification of the documents and is a step towards citizen facilitation,” says the advisory sent to the state police and transport departments on November 19, 2018.
Benefits of this App are:
- Find details of any parked, accidental or theft vehicle by just entering the registration number.
- Verify your car registration details.
- Verify details of a second-hand vehicle.
- If you want to buy a second-hand car you can verify the age and registration details.
- Along with the above features, you can also verify DL details and create virtual DL and RC
in this app.
