The Aadhaar-based learner s licence process eliminates the need for physical verification, scrutiny, and approval, streamlining the application procedure, said Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu. The initiative will not only save time and resources but also reduce the un-necessarily burden on the regional transport offices (RTO) and regional and licensing authorities (RLA s) offices, they said. Applicants can now submit their learner s licence applications, upload necessary documents and signatures, and make the required fee payment online. However, for the driving licence test, individuals still need to schedule an appointment and physically visit the RLA as per their slot booking, he added. (editor dailyworld.in)
