Nagpur Faces Delays in HSRP Number Plate Replacement
Imagine your car has a special new license plate called an HSRP.
The government wants everyone to get this new plate, but there aren't enough places to put them on quickly.
Only a few people have the new plates so far.
Many people are waiting a long time to get their new plates because there aren't enough centers to install them.
This is causing a problem because the deadline to get the new plates is coming up soon.
The government is not directly controlling the installation process.
They are just watching the numbers and helping if people have problems.
The deadline for High Security Registration Plates (HSRP) is likely to be extended again.
Only 4% of vehicles have replaced their number plates with HSRP as of now.
The city has 99 authorized centers with a combined capacity of 4,830 replacements per day.
Citizens face issues like long waiting lists and slow websites for appointments.
RTO officials are not directly involved in the online HSRP process.
