Punjab’s RC, DL Delays Slammed in High Court PIL

A Public Interest Litigation (PIL) has been filed in the Punjab and Haryana High Court, highlighting the unacceptable delays in issuing Registration Certificates (RCs) and Driving Licences (DLs) in Punjab. The petitioner, Neha Sharma, alleges undue and unreasonable delays causing significant hardship to vehicle purchasers.

The PIL seeks immediate court intervention to address this systemic issue. Sharma’s plea underscores the bureaucratic hurdles faced by citizens in obtaining essential vehicle documents.

The High Court’s response to this PIL will have significant implications for streamlining the process of vehicle registration and licensing in the state. This case highlights a pressing administrative challenge impacting thousands of Punjab residents and underscores the need for greater efficiency and accountability within the state’s transport department. The outcome could set a precedent for other states grappling with similar delays.
