GURUGRAM: Beginning Monday, a three-day drive to ease the process of getting a high-security registration plate (HSRP) will be held for vehicle owners.
The special camp will be organised by the Regional Transport Authority (RTA) at the Red Cross parking at Rajiv Chowk from 9.30am to 5.30pm. About four or five help desks will be set up, where a person can walk in with relevant documents like registration certificate and identification documents. Officials said they have been receiving more applications for HSRPs and hope to build on the momentum by facilitating on-spot registration.
“It will be a walk-in facility where our team will help the residents with immediate online registration. Once registered, it will take 24 hours to generate the HSRP plates and the applicants will have to visit the camp the following day to get them fixed. We urge people to make the most of this camp,” said Ravi Bharadwaj, state head of Link Utsav, the company hired for installing HSRPs in the state.
The camp will also dispose of pending applications. Several people have been complaining about the delay in getting their plates fixed even after registering online.
“The online system is working well and we are getting about 700 to 1,000 applications on a daily basis. But there are a lot of people who are yet to get the plates and this drive will help our efforts to maximise the coverage,” said an official.
Following a Supreme Court order, HSRPs have been made mandatory for all vehicles across the country.
