The department estimates that embossed plates will be installed on around 300,000 two-wheelers and 100,000 four-wheelers owned by the government by mid-March. After this, private vehicles will also have to mandatorily install embossed number plates.
Arrangements have been made to apply for the license plates online by going to the website of the Department of Transport for the installation of embossed number plates. According to the department, the plate can be installed after paying the revenue by going to the nearest traffic management office.
