Maharashtra's RTO Expansion Draws Criticism Amidst Online Push

Maharashtra's RTO Expansion Draws Criticism Amidst Online Push

Maharashtra's government is opening new offices for vehicle registration (RTOs) even though a lot of services are now online.

Some people think this is a bad idea, especially since there aren't enough workers.

They also point out a rule saying new offices shouldn't be made unless a district is divided.

The government says it's to help people in rural areas who have to travel far.

But some people believe it's a political move, ignoring crowded areas and costing too much.

The government is now making a new set of rules for deciding where to build these offices.
