There is a lot of confusion among the public about HSRP. As per the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) order, vehicles must be fitted with HSRP number plates. The central government wants to solve many problems through this measure. He said the main reason for introducing HSRP was to prevent fake registration numbers used by criminals for illegal activities and to track vehicles for traffic violations.
The state government had issued orders on August 17, 2023, but so far only about 20,000 people have come forward and made the change. Awareness among people is low, many questions are also starting to arise among people. People can change number plate from any authorized dealer. They can choose a time slot that suits them or can do it from their home or office too,” said Sudhir Goel, Executive Member and Spokesperson, Indian Registration Plate Manufacturers Association.
November 17 is the last day for plate installation for older vehicles. This rule will be applicable to all old vehicles including two-wheeler, three-wheeler, light motor vehicle, medium and heavy commercial vehicle, tractor, passenger car registered before April 2019.
