30% new autos without high security registration plates

NEW DELHI: The bus gang rape in December has not broken the transport department's slumber on high security registration plates (HSRP) that can help enforcement agencies keep track of new vehicles. Of the roughly 11,000 autorickshaws registered in recent months, 3,545 (approximately 30%) do not have HSRPs. Also, 4,000 new taxis in the city are plying without these plates.

"More than 10,000 registered commercial vehicles have not got their high security plates affixed by us," said U R Kapoor of Rosemerta, the company affixing secure numberplates on behalf of the transport department. Last year, the department had made it mandatory for all new vehicles registered in Delhi to bear secure numberplates. In fact, dealers were told to deliver vehicles — barring DTC and contract buses — only after fitting the secure plates.

Kapoor blames dealers for the pileup of numberplates. "The Supreme Court had in December 2012 ordered that new vehicles will be delivered only after affixing HSRPs. This is not happening, however, as we have got complaints from vehicle owners about vehicles being delivered without HSRPs," he says.

Despite complaints, the transport department has not acted against erring dealers. "We have asked the traffic police to challan vehicles registered after April 2012 that do not have HSRPs. We will act against dealers afterwards," said a transport department official.

Incidentally, the transport minister has been talking tough about enforcement by the department for a long time now. Drives against autorickshaw drivers without public service vehicle (PSV) badges, and chartered buses have been started. However, the department has been silent about measures to enforce the HSRP scheme.
