REASI, Dec 12: Assistant Regional Transport Officer Reasi Rajesh Gupta along with his team of officials organised an awareness program here to educate the transporters and general public about the recent amendments in Contract Carriage J&K Permit rules. Drivers and Transporters from all over the district attended the programme.
The ARTO said that the aim of amendments was to make the process easy and pro people wherein the J&K UT has decided to omit the grant of Letter of Authority which was earlier mandatory for registration of commercial vehicles.
The permit procedures have been simplified as now onwards an applicant can apply directly for the permit online on the transport department website after registration of vehicles under contract carriages segment. Earlier, the applicant had to apply for a Letter of Authority after the approval of RTA/STA, which was mandatory for registration of vehicles and subsequent issuance of Route Permit under any commercial segment.
