This Decision Aims to Address the Growing Backlog of RC and DL Registrations and Renewals, Which Has Been Pending for Some Time

- HT Correspondent

CHANDIGARH: The Punjab government on Monday announced that it will delegate the authority for the registration and renewal of registration certificates (RC) and driving licences (DL) to regional authorities. This decision aims to address the growing backlog of RC and DL registrations and renewals, which has been pending for some time.

Transport minister Laljit Singh Bhullar said that the move will offer significant relief to citizens across the state. "As per the new guidelines, applicants will now be able to get their old vehicles and driving licenses digitized online and renew the related documents with ease," Bhullar said, adding that the lack of proper approvals for renewal documents and the non-digitisation of records had become a major obstacle in clearing the backlog.
