Gujarat Vehicles Get Fitness Certificates in Bengaluru
A transport officer in Bengaluru was suspended for giving fitness certificates to vehicles from Gujarat without checking them in person.
The officer, Nissar Ahmed, gave these certificates even though the vehicles were far away in Gujarat.
The Gujarat transport department noticed this and told Karnataka about the problem.
Karnataka then started an investigation and suspended the officer.
This shows how important it is to follow rules to make sure everything is done correctly.
