Ahmedabad: Next time you pass through a toll plaza, including the one on the Sardar Patel Ring Road, ensure that you have updated all your documents on the Parivahan portal.
The state govt will soon implement an e-detection project at toll plazas, including Sardar Patel Ring Road, to enforce motor vehicle laws. “If transport vehicles pass through these plazas with outdated documents like PUC, insurance, fitness or permits on the Parivahan portal, an immediate e-challan will be issued,” said an official.
The project will help the road transport department strengthen the enforcement of motor vehicle law using technology.
This initiative, currently for transport vehicles only, aims to enhance “ease of doing business” and “ease of living”. The e-detection portal, developed by the National Informatics Centre (NIC), will be applied to all toll plazas under the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) and the roads and buildings department.
“Transporters, vehicle owners, and drivers in and outside Gujarat will have to ensure that they have their documents in place. The govt has advised these to keep their vehicle documents updated on the Parivahan portal and comply with traffic rules,” read a statement from the Transport Commissioner’s office.
