VIP Plates For Commonwealth Games

Delhi is planning to release a VIP car registration number series for vehicles to be used by Commonwealth Games delegates.

This will help police and traffic cops to easily identify them, transport officials said.

The series is likely to start with the letters CWG, abbreviation used globally for the sporting event, followed by numbers, said a senior transport official.

The series will be exclusive to at least 2,000 vehicles which the Commonwealth Games Organising Committee plans to buy, the official added.

“Chief minister Sheila Dikshit proposed the idea so that we could mark the vehicles for easy identification. This way they will be offered priority services when security curbs are in place during the event,” a senior officer said.
