Nagaland government on Thursday banned the use of designation/name plates on vehicles.
An order from Home commissioner Abhishek Singh said that as per the provisions of the Motor Vehicle Act 1988 and Central Motor Vehicle Act 1989 nothing except the registration number of vehicles should be displayed on the number plate.
The government cautioned that violators of the order would face action under Section 177 of the Motor Vehicle Act 1988. However for ministers and MLAs, appropriate colour coded car stickers would be issued to facilitate their movement.
Meanwhile, adhering to the provisions of the said Act, deputy commissioner (DC) of Dimapur, Sushil Kumar Patel, Thursday removed his designation plate from his official vehicle and requested others to follow suit. The notification to ban the use of name/designation plates comes on the day the new government took charge, as promised in the NDPP election manifesto.
Chief minister Neiphiu Rio said his government was committed to fulfill poll manifesto. “We have committed in our manifesto that we will remove VIP culture from Nagaland and we will ensure that the citizens of the State are the real VIPs”, the newly appointed Chief Minister said.
It may be pointed out that several such notifications were issued even in the past, but were not implemented on the ground.
