Registration of vehicles: non-filers should not face difficulty: Buzdar

12 Mar, 2019

Punjab Chief Minister Sardar Usman Buzdar has directed the excise and taxation department that non-filers should not face any difficulty in the registration process after the purchase of vehicle of prescribed limit. He issued these directions while chairing a high-level meeting that also discussed the matter pertaining to launch of universal number plates besides reviewing the performance of excise and taxation department.
The Chief Minister also directed the Excise Minister to conduct field visits for knowing public problems and their redressal. The excise and taxation department should particularly focus on giving facilities to the people and the role of agent-mafia in the registration of motorcycles and vehicles should be eliminated. The agent-mafia extorts money for the registration of vehicles in collusion with the concerned officials, he added.
Buzdar said that he would not tolerate it and this should have to come to an end now. He said that the department should focus on giving relief to the people and delaying tactics should be avoided and hoped that the launch of universal number plates will help in identification of vehicles.
He said the vehicles registration process should be made further easy to facilitate the people. The excise department officials who willingly create any trouble for the people should better find any other assignment as undue delay in files' disposal will not be tolerated now, he added. The secretary excise briefed about the launch of universal number plates.
