The Motor Vehicles Department Anantnag has intensified its enforcement efforts to ensure road safety and to ensure compliance with transport rules, issuing 65 invoices against traffic violations on Monday.
According to Mubashir Jan, Arto Anantnag, the first day of the special drive, the department issued 65 challans at various places in the district, including the National Highway (NH -44), Cokeranag, Daksam and Velu.
He said that the drive focuses on several violations such as overloading, speed of governors, and exceeding the permissible number of passengers in Sumu vehicles.
“No vehicle was seized on the first day, but strict action was taken against the violations of route permits and other transport norms,” said Arto Anantnag.
He said that the drive is part of a long initiative of one week, which aims to check required vehicle documents such as driving license, insurance, pollution under control (PUC) certificate and root permits.
“We have deployed teams to inspect highways, tehsil roads and nearby areas,” he said.
He further stated that the drive will continue in the coming days, and the vehicle owners are urged to keep their documents up -to -date and follow the security rules to avoid punishment.
“Common citizens are requested to cooperate with the department in curbing traffic violations,” Arto said.
