Validity of vehicle permits extends till June end

The government has extended the validity of several motor vehicle documents including driving licences, vehicle registration certificates and permits, that have expired since February 1 until June 30.

The decision has been taken in the wake of the 21-day nationwide lockdown announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to contain the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic and closure of the government transport offices.

The decision was taken to facilitate people facing difficulties in renewing the validity of various motor vehicle documents due to nationwide lockdown in the country and closure of government transport offices.
