J-K Mandates GPS, RFID for Mineral Transport

The Jammu and Kashmir government has made new rules for transporting minerals.

From now on, all vehicles carrying minerals like sand, stone, and clay must have GPS tracking and RFID tags.

They also need a special digital receipt called an e-Challan.

This is to stop illegal mining and make sure everything is done properly.

The government has already tested this system in one area and plans to use it everywhere by January 26, 2026.

They are also setting up teams to catch people who break the rules.

The new system helps them track everything in real-time and make sure miners pay the right amount of money.

The government hopes to make Rs 300 crore from these rules next year.
