The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways on Thursday released a notification informing that 18 services regarding Driving Licence and Certificate of Registration have been made completely online. This means that now citizens can now access these services without visiting the Regional Transport Office (RTO). According to the ministry, the services can be availed through Aadhaar authentication, on a voluntary basis.
