Chhattisgarh to crack down on vehicles sans valid documents

Staff Reporter

The Chhattisgarh government has stepped up efforts to take strict measures against vehicles that do not have fitness certificate, road tax and proper documents.

An official communiqué on Friday said the preparation for implementing the ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) e-detection system on various routes in the state has been completed.

This system will enable automatic fines for vehicles without fitness and tax when they pass through the roads. The inauguration of this system will take place at the earliest.

The implementation of transportation facilities is being carried out smoothly in light of a high number of fatalities in road accidents.

The Chief Minister has instructed to take appropriate action to reduce such accidents. One major cause for the accidents is heavy vehicles plying on roads without fitness certificates.

ANPR cameras will automatically detect and issue fines for vehicles without fitness certificate and tax papers.

ANPR cameras have been installed at nine locations on various routes in Chhattisgarh.

The places are Mahasamund Basna Padampur Road, Saraipali Sarangarh Road, Jairam Nagar Masturi Road, Raipur Abhanpur Bharengabhata, Pathalgaon Ambikapur Road, Dongargarh Rajnandgaon Road, Raigarh Tendubhata, Raigarh Saria and Nagri Road.
